Re: ASP and RAID-5 configuration

No gottchas, works great.  A parity set is just a parity set.  It can
support as many parity sets as it can hold ASPs (15 I think).

Hello,

We're about to install a new 520, with 12 * 35Gb disks and Feature #4778
PCI RAID Disk unit Ctlr. We're thinking of installing 4 disks in de main
box in ASP1, containing LIC and OS400, and the 8 others in the #5095 PCI
Expension Tower in an ASP2, containing application libraries and data.
Would the one and only RAID Disk Controller be able to control both ASPs ?
OS version is V5R3M0. Any other gotcha's?

Thanks for your help,
