Preparing the system
Complete the following steps before you remove a disk drive or solid-state drive from a system or from
an expansion unit:
1.
Verify that the disk drive or solid-state drive you are replacing has been suspended before continuing
with this procedure. For instructions, see “Preparing to remove a disk drive or solid-state drive from a
system or logical partition controlled by IBM i” on page 102 and complete that procedure before you
continue with the steps in this procedure.
2.
If you are replacing a mirrored, RAID 5, or RAID 6 protected disk unit, proceed to 4.
3.
Before removing a disk drive or solid-state drive, ensure to back up all the data from the drive or the
array that the drive is a part of, and then move the data from the drive that you want to remove. For
instructions, choose one of the following options:

Preparing to remove a disk drive or solid-state drive
Complete the following steps before you remove a disk drive or solid-state drive from a system or from
an expansion unit:
1.
If you are removing a solid-state device located on a PCIe RAID and SSD SAS adapter, go to
Removing and replacing the PCIe RAID and SSD SAS adapter, and complete that procedure. Ensure
to verify if whether the other SSDs in the PCIe RAID and SSD SAS adapter are suspended before
you proceed with removing the SSD. For instructions to verify if the SSDs are suspended and
suspend the SSDs, see “Preparing to remove a disk drive or solid-state drive from a system or
logical partition controlled by IBM i” on page 102.
2.
Locate the disk drive or solid-state drive to be replaced and record the location information. Then,
use the location information to activate the identify light for that drive. For instructions, see
“Activating the failing-part indicator light” on page 135.
3.
Determine if the disk drive or solid-state drive to be removed is a non-configured unit by
performing the following steps:
a.
Type
strsst
on the command line of the IBM i session, and then press Enter.
b.
Type your service tools user ID and service tools password, and then press Enter.
c.
Select
Work with disk units
, and then press Enter.
