RE: Installing new disks and RAID Controller on a AS/400 170 2176 system

Actually you should do a save storage.  This will retain your spool
files and the restore is faster.  I would do one save storage and one
save entire system(21).  
Remember to clean your drive before each save.

Very simple:

1) GO SAVE
2) Option '21. Entire System'
2b) Option '21. Entire System' (a 2nd copy for safety)
3) Power down
4) Replace components
5) IPL from backup tape
6) Restore from tape
