Dell Modular Disk Storage Manager reports unreadable sectors after a power failure

Fix below:

Open cmd as administrator ->

Navigate to the SMcli exe and execute the following to connect to the storage array via the two controller IPs.

C:\Program Files\Dell\MD Storage Software\MD Storage Manager\client>SMcli 192.168.100.1 192.168.100.2

Entering interactive mode. Please type desired command.

clear allVirtualDisks unreadableSectors
;
[Press CTRL+c]
Script execution complete.

All done.

If this error  re-occurs then you will need to do a support file export to identify affected disks as this may then be a  genuine hardware issue.
