               one or more addressable entities be in said first,                     
               "non preferred" state; and indicator adjustment

               response to said identifying of said damaged one of                    
               said addressable entities by said identification                       
               means because of said relation between said damaged

                    reconfigurable storage entities,...                               
               c.   locating a same relative addressable entity in                    
                    said second of said two or more reconfigurable                    
                    storage entities, said same relative addressable                  
                    entity having a same relative position within                     
                    said second of said two or more reconfigurable                    
                    storage entities as has said damaged one of said                  
                    one or more addressable entities within said                      
                    first of said two or more reconfigurable storage                  
                    entities, and                                                     
               d.   turning on an indicator associated with said                      
                    same relative addressable entity if said same                     
                    relative addressable entity does not contain                      
                    "fixed" data, said indicator indicating that                      
                    said same relative addressable entity should not                  
                    be used to contain fixed data.
