The import action allows you to import an unconfigured storage pool. A storage pool can be unconfigured because of an inadvertent action, factory reset, or service operation to recover user data. Importing a storage pool required iterating over all attached storage devices and discovering any existing state. This can take a significant amount of time, during which no other storage configuration activities can take place.
Before You Begin
Do not perform a pool configuration operation while a disk firmware upgrade is occurring. To check if an upgrade is in progress, navigate to maintenance system updates.
