RE: SYSTEM SPACE

There are all sorts of things that a qualified service person could do, but
none of them are supported for a user to do.

At the very least, you could turn off mirroring, pump to the larger drives,
move drives around, then change the other two drives and re-start
mirroring.

What I was asking Al was if it was possible to replace our dasd drives with

larger ones without having to reload the os and data?  We have four drives
which are mirroed on a 170 at V5R3......I do not know if I can be more
specific than that.  Is there something else you are wanting to know?

If you bought, it was hauled by a truck - somewhere, sometime.
