Re: Swapping 6607 Drives for 6713 drives on an 9406-S30

["Al Barsa" <barsa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

SAVSTG/RSTSTG's rules were relaxed after the first few releases.  You can
now restore to any system with the same (or greater) number of spindles,
with the same or greater capacity.

Al,

  Not to look silly here (But if I must to learn...) however I always
thought
that you had to have the EXACT disk configuration to restore from a SAVSTG.

e.e. 10 4G drives to 10 4G drives, if the drive size is different the
config
is different and the 'RSTSTG' will fail.

Have I missed something?

  THanks!

    - Larry
