Jerry,
1. Usually it should be the load source. You can find out it from iSeries
Navigator.
iSeries Navigator -->Configuration and Service --> Hardware --> Disk Units
--> Disk Pools. You will need SST access for that.

2. No, though the system will be very slow, especially when it is a load
source.

3. Always make sure that backup is available ...

Best Regards.

Unit 1 in our four disk set (Raid5) failed. The IBM CE called and is
bringing a replacement, but I've got a question or two before he arrives.

First, isn't unit 1 where the load source lives?

Second, are there any special steps in the recovery because of that?

Third, he said it was hot swappable. (I'm still going to kick everyone
off of the system, though.) Is it really that easy?

Thanks.
