On real LSI MegaRAIDs, you can use megacli to show / clear the foreign state of drives. The following will clear the foreign state of any foreign drives on all controllers: # megacli -cfgforeign -clear -aALL I'm not sure if you can use megacli with PERC controllers, but I'm sure there will be something very similar. _______________________________________________ ceph-users mailing list ceph-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.ceph.com/listinfo.cgi/ceph-users-ceph.com
