Recover or rebuild a degraded virtual drive
You can manually rebuild a degraded virtual disk. RAID rebuild is available only when a degraded RAID volume is present and
there is an available target device. If a foreign virtual disk is in rebuild state, rebuild starts automatically after you import the
virtual disk and reboot the server. Clear configuration operation does not affect any background activity, like rebuild.
