Same here.   But, we always take a SAVSYS option 21 first.

put a colored dot label on each cable and the card it plugs into.
Unhook the cables
Pick up the machine and put it in your back seat Drive to the new 
location and reattach the cables.

I once tossed a 270 into the back of my Suburban and drove 9 hours to 
Tulsa. Plugged everything back in and hit the power button. 20 minutes 
later I was working again.

moving an i5






I have to move an i5 520 a few miles and I looking for suggestions on 
how to accomplish this task.

I haven't heard that disk drives need to be locked down prior to a move 
for a long time.  Necessary?

Jerry

Here's my short list:

.                Confirm with IBM any considerations with regard to moving
i5 520.
.                Label all cables connected to i5 520 (can be done prior
to move day).
.                Prepare a set of testing criteria for user groups to
assure the system
is operating property after the move.
.                Confirm that any outside partners know that the system
will be
non-operational so that no one tries (and fails) to communicate with
i5 520.
.                Perform a complete system backup the night before the
move; do not
allow any further processing to occur after the full system backup


Moving Day
Task
.                If active, stop monitors of i5 520.
.                cause a controlled end all active systems
.                Power off i5 520:  PWRDWNSYS IMMED RESTART(*NO)
.                Remove all labeled cables in preparation for move.
.                Carefully move i5 520 to new location using pullies,
dollies, old
boxes, roller logs, etc., and van.
.                Locate i5 520 at new location
.                Connect all labeled cables
.                Press the “power on” button on the front panel to start
the IPL
sequence.
.                After the IPL completes normally sign on system and
perform basic
verification of system integrity.
.                Turn system over to users for further system verification
tests.
