10.13 Importing Foreign Array

When an SED encrypted logical drive is moved from one controller to another , the master key of the controller is required to make the logical device online. Use the Foreign Key Identifier option to import the master key, so that the logical drive data can be accessed and managed on the new controller.

To import a foreign array:

1. In the Enterprise View, select an array with “Has Logical Drive with Foreign SED” status.
2. On the ribbon, in the Array group, click Set Properties.
   

   The Set Properties window appears.

3. On the General tab, click Import Foreign SED Logical Device(s) check box. Specify the Foreign Key Identifier value. The Foreign Key Identifier is the master key of the controller from which the array/logical device is imported to the current controller.
   
4. Click OK.
