It seems most likely that you have gotten used/previously assigned disks from another system. These are considered "foreign" when added. Here is a basic starting point: https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/openmanage-server-administrator-v9.4/omss_9.4_users_guide/clearing-foreign-configuration

Or from the iDRAC itself, the function to clear the foreign config is under the controller commands.

Hi @pjwelsh​ Thank for you review. The physical disk is new. Openmanage can detect as new disk, but RAID unable rebuild when insert. And Openmanage & iDRAC unable assign as delicated hot space. Below are screenshot.

Pic A: RAID 5 (already remove failure disk)
