Now you can carefully remove the exported drive array. It may be a good idea to switch the
locate lights on for this array  Storage Subsystem  select the exported array  press
Array and than the Locate button. Now the yellow lights on the disk drives will blink.

15.6 Import secure drive array

Once all the disks have been physically moved and are seated correctly in the target DS3500
enclosure, the drives can be unlocked and then the array can be imported. It is necessary to
ensure that all the drives are seen by the DS3500 and that there is not a problem with them,
as any problems will affect the array after it has been imported.
All drives will be in a locked state, as shown by the event viewer and the individual drive
properties, as shown in Figure 15-31 on page 477. We reinserted the Array in the same
Storage Subsystem. So the key details are still ok. When you place the exported array in a
different Storage Subsystem you will get a message in the Status screen Access is not
allowed due to invalid key details.
