Re: How do I extra add disks the the storage pool? -- MIDRANGE-L

I presume that was intentional, as there was no need at all to erase data on your load source drive during a release upgrade. All user data is preserved when you do a normal release upgrade.

Anyway, that sheep's already sheared, so now (going from memory here, as V3R2 is so old) you need to do a manual IPL and go into Dedicated Service Tools, Work with Disk Units, Work with Disk Configuration, Work with ASP Configuration, and Add disk units to ASPs - adding the other 3 disks to the system ASP (ASP 1). Put a 1 against all 3 disks (you can add them all together). Then step back out of DST, and install the operating system.
(If you already did it, you probably want to do it again, to spread it out so it isn't all sitting on disk 1).

Subject: How do I extra add disks the the storage pool?

Hi List,
I have upgraded my Model 200 from V3R1 to V3R2 all OK .I chose option 24 when installing the LIC from tape to erase all the data on the load source drive.because for some strange reason option 23 would not work--I suspect probaly because the LIC on V3R1 is diffent to the LIC on V3R2.

............but and made a big error.(I ignorned the option during OS install to add all the drives to the ASP) Hence did not add all the disk drives........................
3 x 6605 disks drives to the Storage Pool hence Im running on just "one disk drive ",the load source drive!!!!
I can all see four disks with WRKDSKSTS but of course only the load source drive is in the pool

I have no manuals and I was wondering if any one can tell me the correct proceedure with commands to safely add the drives by command.?

cheers
