RE: V5R1M0 9406-270 (Failed 9Gig Raided disk)

Concurrent maint.

Go to SST (STRSST)
Start a service tool
Hardware service
Concurrent maintenance
enter the failed disk location (Frame 1 / D04) select remove and press
enter.
When the light blinks, pull the drive.
Do concurrent maintenance again and enter the same location this time for an
add.  Press enter.
When slot light blinks, add drive.

Then you need to go rebuild your disk.  This is all laid out in the
customer-install feature guide that came on the CD w/ your system.  Refer to
that for more detailed instructions.

Hi Guys,

I have a new system that came with 5 x 9Gig drives, and is raided.  The disk
in slot D04 shows a "Failed" protection status while the other 4 shows "Not
Protected" status.  I reported the situation to IGF and I have received a
new DISK this morning.
I made all attempt to replace the FAILED disk but I can not get the new DISK
going.  I was successful in installing the new DISK in slot D06 but not slot
D04. I am using installation instruction from iSeries Inforcenter -
"Installing 43xx disk units"

I'm I doing something wrong in the replacement?
Do I have a bad disk in the first place or a configuration issue?

Thanks for all of your input.
