Replacing the Disk Drive
Step 1. Sometimes diskinfo and ioscan will display cached data. Running diskinfo on the device
without a disk installed clears the cached data. Enter the following commands. For the diskinfo
command, the 'x' s are replaced with actual values.
#diskinfo -v /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx
#ioscan -f
Step 2. Be sure the front locking latch is open, then carefully position the disk drive in the chassis.
Step 3. Slide the disk drive into the chassis; a slow, firm pressure is needed to properly seat the connection.
Step 4. Depress the front locking latch to secure the disk drive in the chassis.
Step 5. Spin up the disk by entering one of the following commands:
#diskinfo -v /dev/rdsk/cxtxdx
#ioscan -f
