Thanks, Rob. That was good news. 40 GB for load source instead of 70 GB.

Evan, I do have a question about one of the steps you recommend.
I decided on the second option you suggested (using STRASPBAL to move data off some drives to another) and it looks OK so far.
As I said, I had four 'drives' and used STRASPBAL to move everything to the same drive as the load source is on. When I do a WRKDSKSTS it still looks like this...

Size    %     I/O   Request   Read  Write   Read  Write    %
Unit  Type      (M)  Used    Rqs  Size (K)    Rqs   Rqs (K)   (K)   Busy
   1  6B22    95449   4.6     .0       .0      .0     .0 .0     .0     0
   2  6B22    95449  17.6     .0       .0      .0     .0 .0     .0     0
   3  6B22    95449    .5     .0       .0      .0     .0 .0     .0     0
   4  6B22    95449    .5     .0       .0      .0     .0 .0     .0     0

Everything SHOULD be on Unit 2 and I confirmed from the QHST that the ASP balancing is done, so I have to assume everything is actually moved.

Now my question...

You refer to "a combination of STRASPBAL and deallocating the the unused disks". What do you mean by deallocating? I see no commands to deallocate, just remove disks (in STRSST).
Is there a step I should do before removing the now unused disks using STRSST? Maybe an IPL first? The three drives (Units 1, 3, and 4) are still flagged as *ENDALC.
