disk Commands /unconditional{=boolean} Specifies whether to initialize the disk even if arrays on the disk have open files. If you specify TRUE for this switch, the command initializes the disk even if the disk has open files. The default is FALSE; that is, the disk initialize command does not initialize a disk that has open files on it. WARNING: Unconditionally deleting an array that is in use can cause a system crash under some circumstances. Examples The following example initializes a SCSI disk device (SCSI channel number 0, SCSI device ID 2, and SCSI device logical unit number 0) that has data on it: AAC0>disk initialize /always (0,2,0) Executing: disk initialize /always=TRUE (CHANNEL=0,ID=2,LUN=0) 5-4
