You can do it 2 basic ways... #1 Power Down, Swap the drive, power up and it should start the rebuild #2 STRSST and go into the Concurrent maint function. You use this function to power down the drive and quiet (sp) the bus so you don't throw garbage on the bus. What release and what model system you have, I'll try and find the exact destructions... __________________________________________________ Kirk Goins IBM Certified iSeries Technical Solutions Expert Pacific Information Systems - An IBM Premier Business Partner 503-674-2985 kirkg@pacinfosys.com -----Original Message----- From: Carl Galgano [mailto:cgalgano2@ediconsulting.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 2:39 PM To: Midrange List Subject: Disk replacement for DUMMIES OK, I am not hardware neophyte by any means, I just don't want to mess this up. I noticed today that one of the drives (6607) in a RAID pool has died. The system shows that the drive is FAILED and the rest of the drives in the raid pool are UNPROTECTED. I will have a new drive here in the AM to install. Can anyone give me brief, step, by step instructions as to how to get the data off the old one. Or do I just install it, add it to the raid pool and go. All advice accepted. Thanks, cjg Carl J.
