Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller 11 User’s Guide PERC H755, H750, H355, and H350 Controller Series

Foreign configuration not found in HII

Error Message:
The foreign configuration message is present during POST but no foreign configurations are present in the foreign view page in HII configuration utility. All virtual disks are in an optimal state.
Corrective Action:
Ensure all your PDs are present and all VDs are in optimal state. Clear the foreign configuration using HII configuration utility or Dell OpenManage Server Administrator Storage Management.
CAUTION:The physical disk goes to Ready state when you clear the foreign configuration.

If you insert a physical disk that was previously a member of a virtual disk in the system, and that disk’s previous location has been taken by a replacement disk through a rebuild, you must manually remove the foreign configuration flag of the newly inserted disk.
