RE: DISK Sanitizer Help

I have suggested this option to management, but they want it to be DOD compliant.

In a single level storage system like the IBMi, what are the chances that any useful data could be retrieved from a disk if you were to:

1.) Power Down the system...

2.) Rearrange the disk drives in the disk subsystem slots.

3.) IPL to DST and reconfigure the disk hardware.

I would think that the chances of anyone getting any useful data off of these drives would be less than your chances of being hit by a lighting strike on your way home tonight.
