Disk drive compatibility with CMS loads

These configuration files (/olds/disk.conf and /olds/olds-funcs) must be edited or replaced with the correct information. Contact the Avaya technical support organization for assistance.

Prerequisites

Do a CMSADM backup, if possible, before you add or replace a disk drive. See your CMS software installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting document for this procedure.

Before you attempt to replace defective data (nonboot) disks, try to print the current setup for all ACDs. This information must be readministered after you install replacement disks.
