4 Navigate to the Foreign Config option and press the right arrow key to
display the available actions: Import and Clear .
NOTE:
Ensure that your virtual disk has all the physical disks by verifying that
there are no physical disks marked as Missing in the foreign view page and
that all the disks appear as expected before importing them.
5 Select Import to import the foreign configuration or Clear to delete the
foreign configuration and then press <Enter>.
If you import the configuration, the
VD Mgmt screen displays detailed
configuration information. It includes information about the disk groups,
virtual disks, physical disks, space allocation, and hot spares.
Importing or Clearing Foreign Configurations Using the Foreign
Configuration View Screen
NOTE:
To import a secured foreign configuration, see "Security Key and RAID
Management" on page 121.
If one or more physical disks are removed from a configuration, the
configuration on those disks is considered a foreign configuration by the
RAID controller.
You can use the
Foreign Configuration View screen to view information
about the foreign configuration, such as disk groups, virtual disks, physical
disks, space allocation, and hot spares. The foreign configuration data is
displayed in the same format as configurations on the VD Mgmt screen.
You can use the VD Mgmt screen to view the foreign configuration before
importing. After you view the foreign configuration, you can either clear or
import to the RAID controller.
NOTE:
Before you import the foreign configuration, review the configuration on the
screen to ensure that it is the end result that you require.
You can use the
Foreign Configuration View
screen to manage foreign
configurations in the following cases:
• All the physical disks in a configuration are removed and re-inserted.
• Some of the physical disks in a configuration are removed and re-inserted.
• All the physical disks in a virtual disk are removed, but at different times,
and then re-inserted.
• The physical disks in a non-redundant virtual disk are removed.
