Secured foreign import errors

A foreign configuration is a RAID configuration that already exists on a replacement physical disk that you install in a system. A secured foreign configuration is a RAID configuration that was created under a different security key.

There are two scenarios in which a secured foreign import fails:

  • The security key authentication fails—A virtual disk secured with a security key different from the current controller security key cannot be imported without authentication of the original security key used to secure them. Supply the correct security key to import the secured foreign configuration. If you have lost or forgotten the security key, the secured foreign disks remain locked (inaccessible) until the appropriate security key is entered or disks are erased.
  • The secured virtual disk is in an offline state after supplying the correct security key—You must check to determine why the virtual disk failed and correct the problem.
