It may not be a bad idea, but it's not strictly necessary.

Once you've done that, (or not) it's just rmdev -dl pdisk5

If the disk failed whilst in use there may still be data in the cache. If
that's the case,
you'll get loads of errors about possible performance degradation. The SRN
for that will
take you to the procedure to clear it out, though, so it's not really a big
deal.

I know how to remove logical hdisk.
ex: rmdev -dl hdisk9
but how do I remove the pdisk5 associated
with this logical drive?
DO I need to disable ssafastwrite?
