This command moves an array into an Exported state. Then you can remove the disk drives that comprise the array and reinstall the disk drives in a different storage subsystem.
Note:
Within the array, you cannot move logical drives that are associated with the premium features from one storage subsystem to another storage subsystem.
start array [arrayName] export
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
array | The alphanumeric identifier of the array (including - and _) that you want to export. Enclose the array identifier in square brackets ([ ]). |
When this command is successful, you can run the start array import command to finish moving the array to a Complete state, which makes the array available to the new storage subsystem.
If this command is unsuccessful because hardware problems prevented the completion of the export, use the set array forceState command. The set array forceState command lets you use the start array import command to import an array.
After the array is in an Exported state or a Forced state, you can remove the disk drives that comprise the array from the storage subsystem. You can reinstall the disk drives in a different storage subsystem.
