Removing a 9337 disk array under V4R4

["Mike Cunningham" <MCUNNING@xxxxxxx>]

We are getting ready to remove two 9337 disk arrays from our 510 before
we upgrade to a 710.  We have never done this operation before and would
like a little feedback.  We have the documented steps from the manual
that tells us how to do it (i.e. full backup, boot into Manual and start
DST, removed the drive, etc)  and our IBM Maint rep tells us it should
take about 4 hours per array.

Before we jump off the ledge I would like to know if anyone out there
has done this and are there any hidden gotcha's that I should be aware
of.  

We are also courious if we will be able to remove both at once or will
we need to do one, wait 4 hours, and then do the second one.
