Import fail- Offline virtual disk canot be imported

Server Poweredge 730

Raid controller - Perc H730 (mini)

When we try to import foreign configuration we got an error 

Error!! Foreign config error 1 out of 1 failed to import 

Offline virtual disk cannot be imported 

Error code 0x3

There is no errors on disks and controller , was RAID1 configuration with 2 HDD . We take out booth disks and then reinsert it and they status changed to foreign . Any idea what wrong?

It is normal for them to show foreign when you take them out and put them back in. I can't think of a good reason for removing them like that. The proper procedure to fix it is to import the foreign configuration. If that isn't working, you can try removing one disk and see if you can import its configuration. If you still can't import the foreign configuration, then you will need to reconfigure and restore from backups.
