Ok, so we're good on our drives (and I WON'T turn off raid, didn't want to
anyway).

So... how do I allocate the load source space?

And is there a list of the required PTFs I need to have installed before getting
started on the upgrade? I found a copied a some pages from the IBM help site,
looking for guidance from those of you who've done it.

Thanks,

No. And PLEASE do not stop RAID!

It does NOT matter what WRKDSKSTS shows for the size of the drive. The
433C is a 139 GB Drive so it qualifies. A 433B is a 70GB Drive and would
also qualify even if WRKDSKSTS shows it at 46.6GB which is what you
would see with three 70GB drives in a RAID set.

Remember for Physical Drives the reason for the change to 70GB or bigger
was because only systems with 70GB drives or bigger could run i 7.2 anyway!
