Our customers have existing F80's that use all SSA drives. The systems were configured to boot to SSA. We have had two hdisk failures lately on two different machines and IBM has replaced with exact replacement drives. The problem is when we try to re-mirror hdisk1 and hdisk0 it comes back with "the drive or drives do not support booting"? Anyone else ran into this? We are stumped. Microcode levels are the same between hdisk0 and hdisk1. Both part of rootvg. Hdisk0 is the new drive. I can mirror lv's separately succesfully but when I try to run bosboot it fails with same message as above.

Thanks in advance!
