5799-SD1 is a PRPQ for OS/400 V5R3M0 or later. Its name is IBM® i5/OS Disk Sanitizer. According to the announcement letter from July 3, 2007:

"IBM Disk Sanitizer for i5/OS(TM) provides a method for the customer to sanitize (securely erase) disk drives by overwriting all addressable locations on the disk drive three times. The Sanitizer meets the specifications listed in Department of Defense (DoD) specification 5220.22-M. A record of all drives sanitized is created for audit purposes."

Only non-configured disk units can be erased using this method.

The objects for this are stored in library QSD1.
