Hi,
I have an 9406-520 at V5R3 which I use for development and is not under maintenance. Disk unit 1 has failed but the system is still running as I have RAID5 setup. I have looked at eBay for a replacement disk but the only ones I can find are in the US and cost more in shipping than they do to buy and I would then have to add import duties and VAT.
The option I am looking at is backing up the system with GO SAVE option 21 , removing the failed disk and then restoring the system. I think I would also have to move one of the other disks to position 1 to replace the failed unit. Disk usage would still be at about 40% so I am not in desperate need to replace the failed disk. I would just like to get RAID5 active again on the remaining disks.
Does this sound reasonable? Is there anything else I should be doing apart from taking as many backups as I can?

Subject: Re: sql scan for special characters
To use the LIKE predicate and be able to find strings with the wildcard characters, you have to escape them. You do this using an ESCAPE expression. You want to use a character that won't otherwise be in any of the values tested.
LIKE 'AAAA+%BBB%' ESCAPE '+'
means that it will match values that start with AAAA%BBB - the final % sign is a wildcard, the first one is a true % sign.
Found this in the reference manual under predicates in the language elements chapter (2, that is).

The scan for PercentSign isn't '%%%%' is it?
