Yes you're going to need to IPL the system into DST and remove the disks there. Don't make the selection of ending parity before removing them, it'll
take forever and still wont remove them. Just select to remove the entire parity set in the first place. It'll drop the parity set once it's removed
that last bit of info and remove the disks out of the profile. Can't remember the exact numbers for the selections.
Good luck,

Moving DASD between LPARs
Please respond to

Greetings!
I have 4 disks that were in one LPAR, and were moved to the TEST LPAR prior
to my starting here, and now we want to move them back to the original
LPAR> I ran the STRASPBAL command marking those drives with *ENDALC, then I
ran the STRASPBAL *MOVDTA command. They are now at 1.2 or 1.3 % used. They
are RAID protected.
STRSST shows them as follows;
Parity Resource Hot Spare
Set ASP Unit Type Model Name Status Protection
1 573D 001 DC04 RAID-5 N
1 3 4328 074 DD015 Active
1 4 4328 074 DD014 Active
1 1 4328 074 DD016 Active
1 2 4328 074 DD013 Active
2 571B 001 DC07 RAID-5 N
1 6 4328 074 DD018 Active
1 5 4328 074 DD017 Active
1 7 4328 074 DD019 Active
1 8 4328 074 DD020 Active
I want to remove parity set 2 - disk unites 5,6,7 and 8 from the ASP, make
them available to the other LPAR and add them to the ASP there.
What steps do I need to do now? I searched the archives, and IBM InfoCenter
and didn't see the answer I need, although I'm sure it is there. Do I have
to IPL the LPAR to dedicated Service Tools to remove them from the ASP now?
The LPARs are HMC managed. The HMC is V7R3.3.0.
Thanks!
Jim
