There is probably PIN'd data in the cache. I've seen this with DS8000s and it required intervention by a CE to resolve this.
---------------------------------------------------------- I should have mentioned that did re-assign 8 volumes from LCU-01 to LCU-03 and it went without any errors. Decided to RUN Stand Alone DSF to initialize a volume and below is what I get. Equipment Check on 2xx CSW: 103ED8 02000020 CCW: 041108A58 20000020 ICK10710I - I/O Error Occurred on Device 280 ICK31024 - Unable to open Volume I have both Storage Manger along wth DSCLI connected to the DS6800.
