Can't reset foreign drive in Open Manage

[Patrick_Boyd at Dell.com]

"Clear Foreign Configuration" or Import are options under the
controller. They aren't on the Physical Disk page.

Subject: Can't reset foreign drive in Open Manage

Does anyone know how to reset a SAS drive labeled as "foreign" if the  
option isn't appearing in the Open Manage GUI?  All I'm getting are  
"blink" options in the pulldown menu -- nothing else.

The only way the disk is identified is by the PERC 5/i controller and  
bay number:  ID 1:0:7.  It's not appearing in RedHat 4 as /dev/sdb.

Diagnostics  shows there's nothing wrong with the drive or  
controller.  I just can't regain access to it.

Thanks,

Ken
