Tony,

you can try diag/task selection/format media for scsi or
for SSA, diag/task selection/ssa service aids/format media.

This won't write over the data with zeros, but will at least reformat.

Subject: [aix-l] Disk Wipe Utility

Is there a disk wipe utility for AIX / UNIX that will clean the disks
completely? We have one for PCs but I haven't located one for AIX. Any help
is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Tony
