Exporting a pool
Use this action to export the specified pool. Exporting a pool prepares the RAID configuration
for transfer to another enclosure.
When you export a pool,
its status changes to foreign. You cannot perform any action on a foreign pool
except view pool components and import a RAID configuration.
To export a pool:
- In the Logical devices view, click
(pool).
- Right-click Export pool.
- Click Yes to confirm the export.
Attention:
When you export multiple pools, Adaptec Storage Manager displays only the most recent one in the Logical devices view.
When you import a RAID configuration, the next most recent foreign pool is displayed; and so on.
This behavior is normal, and is due to the way Adaptec Storage Manager scans for foreign devices.
