A reload should not be necessary. The system located disk by serial # and would know none were missing.

Subject: DASD Controller replacement Q.

My Esteemed Colleagues: On a 170 if you replace a Non-Raid controller with a Raid controller would the system care? In other words would a re-load be required? Certainly if IBM replaces a failed card of the same type there is no reload but I'm just not sure about putting in a different feature card with more capabilities. This is one thing I've never done. Of course backups are an absolute prerequisite in any case. - Larry -- Larry Bolhuis Arbor Solutions, Inc. (616) 451-2500 (616) 451-2571 -fax lbolhuis@arbsol.com
