Spake Harry,
You may wish to use lvm to manage your drives. Just a matter of copying
a few files and  adding 

RUN=K:\OS2\SYSTEM\LVMALERT.EXE
BASEDEV=OS2LVM.DMD

to config.sys. 

Fine with warp 3 and warp 4.

I am not running ECS, see above.
I bought an ECS subscription to get IBM updates.
Installing ECS is not an option for me.
