Recovering volumes

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
The Management Server console lets you recover a volume on a managed host. It recovers plexes and volumes after disk replacement.
You can recover one or more volumes on a managed host. An error page is displayed if the selected volume is not a Storage Foundation volume. This operation can be performed on an imported disk. This operation is not supported on Windows host.
To perform this task, your user group must be assigned the Admin role on the host or the Server perspective. The permission on the host may be explicitly assigned or inherited from a parent Organization.
To recover a volume
  1. In the Management Server console, go to the Server perspective and expand Manage in the left pane.
  2. Expand the Organization or Uncategorized Hosts to locate and select the host.
  3. Expand the host and then expand Volumes to locate the volumes to be recovered.
  4. Right-click on the required volume and select Recover.
  5. In the Recover Volume wizard panel, confirm the volume you want to recover. Click OK.
  6. In the Result panel, verify that the selected volume has been recovered successfully.
