Dell Storage Manager 2020 R1 Administrator's Guide

Restore a Disk

After a disk fails, Storage Center does not allow that disk to be managed again. If the disk is down for testing purposes then deleted, the disk can be restored so that Storage Center can manage the disk again.

Prerequisites

The disk must be down, removed from the enclosure, and deleted from Storage Center.

Steps

  1. If the Dell Storage Manager Client is connected to a Data Collector, select a Storage Center from the Storage view.
  2. Click the Hardware tab.
  3. In the Hardware tab navigation pane, expand the enclosure and select Disks.
    The Disks view is displayed.
  4. In the right pane, click the Disks subtab, then select the disk and click Restore.
    The Restore Disk dialog box opens.
  5. Click OK.
    Storage Center restores the disk and adds it to a disk folder.
