Glad everything turned out OK.

Sometimes the CE's work really quickly. A couple of weeks ago I had a
new CE, BTW.. I have socks older than him ;-(( , out to replace a drive
cage on our 720. From kicking the users off to them being back
operational was less than 45 minutes. If you've ever had to take the
side panel off of a 720, you know that alone could take that much time -
a jillion screws. He did a great job. Plus, it was very heartening to
hear him say that he really liked the iSeries boxes.

I met the CE today, by accident. He showed me the new cache battery.
Looked
like three AA cells.

One other bit of fun: he referred to the machine as AS/400 <g>.

An hour was allocated, but system was IPLed less than twenty minutes
after power
down completed.

He talked to the sys admin as he faulted the battery. Thanks to
previous
threads on this subject, and the link on the procedure, I knew what was
going
on. Thanks!

Quoting Pat Barber <mboceanside@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>:

Our local county government did the exact same thing with no
IBM CE on location. I understand that it took over a week for
the recovery due to some pesky backup issues.

This is a large LPAR machine running the entire county operation.

There were several job changes/deletions in the following months.

Yes, follow the cache flushing directions carefully. I hear of a
customer
site that the IBM CE didn't and they ended up having to do a full
system
restore.
