Hi,
I received several responses on removing the disks. Basically, I
can either just pull the disks out and let them sit there in the slot a
minute or two to let them spin down. Then to clean up, just remove the
rz and rrz files in /dev. Or I can use scu to spin them down and then
just pull out the disks and clean up the files.
No error messages or just 1 or 2 should just pop up in the log files, but
shouldn't
fill them.
I received no responses on upgrading Legato Networker. I'll just take that
as it
comes and see how it goes.
Original question follows.
thanks for the input.
