Parameter Description
Enclose the enclosure ID value, the drawer ID
value, and the slot ID value in square brackets ([ ]).
securityID
The security ID of the physical disk to erase, in
string form. This string can have a maximum of 32
characters. The form of the security ID will vary by
manufacturer.
NOTE: To find the security ID, remove the
physical disk and read the security ID on the
canister label.
Notes
The physical disk parameter supports both dense expansion enclosures and non-dense expansion
enclosures. A dense expansion enclosures has drawers that hold the physical disks. The drawers slide out
of the expansion enclosure to provide access to the physical disks. A non-dense expansion enclosure
does not have drawers. For a dense expansion enclosure, you must specify the identifier (ID) of the
expansion enclosure, the ID of the drawer, and the ID of the slot in which a physical disk resides. For a
non-dense expansion enclosure, you need only specify the ID of the expansion enclosure and the ID of
the slot in which a physical disk resides. For a non-dense expansion enclosure, an alternative method for
identifying a location for a physical disk is to specify the ID of the expansion enclosure, set the ID of the
drawer to 0, and specify the ID of the slot in which a physical disk resides.
Set Foreign Physical Disk to Native
A physical disk is considered to be native when it is a part of a storage array disk group. A physical disk is
considered to be foreign when it does not belong to a storage array disk group or when it fails to be
imported with the physical disks of a disk group that are transferred to a new storage array. The latter
failure creates an incomplete disk group on the new storage array.
Description
Run this command to add the missing (foreign) physical disks back into their original disk group and to
make them part of the new storage array disk group configuration of the new storage array.
Use this operation for emergency recovery only: when one or more physical disks must be changed from
a foreign physical disk status and returned to a native status within their original disk group.
CAUTION: Using this command for purposes other than what is stated above might result in data
corruption or data loss without notification.
