If you are installing a new or upgraded drive, see "Installing a disk drive or solid-state drive in an
8202-E4B, 8202-E4C, 8202-E4D, 8205-E6B, 8205-E6C, or 8205-E6D with the AIX system or logical partition
power turned on" on page 5. If you are removing a drive as part of a service procedure, continue to use
the following procedure.
If the drive that you are removing is in the root volume group (rootvg) and it is not protected by either
Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) or mirroring, or to use the powered-off procedure, go to
"Removing a disk drive or solid-state drive from the 8202-E4B, 8202-E4C, 8202-E4D, 8205-E6B, 8205-E6C,
or 8205-E6D with the system or logical partition power turned off" on page 57.
Note: Some of the figures in these procedures might not look exactly like the system or expansion unit
that you have. However, the steps to complete the task are the same.
Complete the following tasks to remove a drive:
