Re: Replace Disk Unit Under Parity Protection

Thanks, Jerry... it's not the load source unit.

From what I've been reading (from the links that Rob sent) it looks like I should be able to IPL without the failed unit... I'm wondering now why it won't IPL without it... hmmm...

It may matter if it's load source because it sounds like when you remove
the drive you can't IPL the system.

Since you are RAIDed theoretically you could do a hot swap of the drive
using concurrent maintenance. IBM should have decent instructions on
how to do concurrent maintenance.
