Re: Unit XX With Device Parity Protection not operational?

[Chuck Lewis <CLEWIS@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Steve,

They ARE disk drives. If you do a WRKDSKSTS you can see the Units. You can also
check this via STRSST if you have access. If you have Service Director it SHOULD
have called IBM. To be safe, I'd call IBM and have someone check this out if you
folks aren't familiar with it !!
