Disk drive compatibility with CMS loads

When a new or replacement disk drive is installed in an older system, the CMS load may not be compatible with the disk drive if the CMS configuration files have not been updated. Two 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

If possible, do a CMSADM backup 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.
