Restoring a pool

Drive Bender has the ability to restore a pool from drives attached to the system. This is useful for restoring a pool after a server rebuild**.
 
Restore pool (pool dashboard, under advanced settings)
To perform a restore simply select the pool dashboard, then "Show advanced options". From here select "Restore pool”, and you will then be asked if you wish to delete any existing pools first (in most cases answer yes). The restore process will scan all system drives and look for Drive Bender configuration information on those drives, if found those drives and mount points are re-attached to the pool.
 
There is a detailed restore method available from the support site, click here to view.
 
** While every effort is made to perform the restore, some hardware configuration changes may make this process fail. If this is the case we recommend contacting support before proceeding any further.
