Start Disk Group Export - Dell PowerVault MD3620f Command Line Interface Manual

Start Disk Group Export

This command moves a disk group into an Exported state. Then you can
remove the physical disks that comprise the disk group and reinstall the
physical disks in a different storage array.
NOTE:
Within the disk group, you cannot move virtual disks that are associated
with the premium features from one storage array to another storage array.
Syntax
start diskGroup [diskGroupName] export
Parameter
Parameter
diskGroup
Additional Information
When this command is successful, you can run the start diskGroup import
command to finish moving the disk group to a Complete state, which makes
the disk group available to the new storage array.
If this command is unsuccessful because hardware problems prevented the
completion of the export, use the set diskGroup forceState command. The
set diskGroup forceState command lets you use the start diskGroup import
command to import a disk group.
After the disk group is in an Exported state or a Forced state, you can remove
the physical disks that comprise the disk group from the storage array. You can
reinstall the physical disks in a different storage array.
Description
Number of the disk group to defragment. You
must put brackets ([ ]) around the disk group
number.
