Set Foreign Physical Disk to Native

A physical disk is considered to be native when it is a part of a storage array
disk group. A physical disk is considered to be foreign when it does not belong
to a storage array disk group or when it fails to be imported with the physical
disks of a disk group that are transferred to a new storage array. The latter
failure creates an incomplete disk group on the new storage array.
Run this command to add the missing (foreign) physical disks back into their
original disk group and to make them part of the new storage array disk group
configuration of the new storage array.
Use this operation for emergency recovery only: when one or more physical
disks need to be changed from a foreign physical disk status and returned to a
native status within their original disk group.
CAUTION:
Using this command for purposes other than what is stated above
might result in data corruption or data loss without notification.
