Erasing RAID Configuration Data on Foreign Physical Disk
This section describes the procedure to erase RAID configuration data (if any) on a foreign physical disk.
Note: The RAID controller stores RAID configuration data on all physical disks that are part of a virtual disk. RAID configuration data must be erased on the physical disk before it can be used with another virtual disk.
To erase RAID configuration data
WARNING |
If the physical disk was originally part of another virtual disk, erasing RAID configuration data may damage that virtual disk, depending on its fault tolerance capabilities. |
1. Select foreign Physical Disk in the list of system devices, as shown in Figure 1.
2. Rollover the Operation tab, and select Erase Foreign Configuration, as shown in Figure 1.
