Importing disk groups

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
The Management Server console lets you import a disk group.
You cannot import a disk group if the selected disk group is not a Storage Foundation disk group or if it is not in a deported state.
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 import a disk group
  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 the host.
  3. Expand the host and then expand Disk Groups to locate the disk group to be imported.
  4. Right-click on the selected disk group and select Import.
  5. In the Import Disk Group wizard panel, confirm the disk group you want to import. Click OK.
See Import disk group panel options.
  1. In the Result panel, verify that the selected disk group has been imported successfully.
