# Recovering storage with fail back

Note: This action is not supported on enclosures with a single controller configuration.

For enclosures with a dual controller configuration, use this action to restore an array to its preferred owner. When a controller fails in an enclosure (or is intentionally removed), its arrays and logical drives automatically fail over to the other controller. This action moves the arrays and logical drives back to the controller to which they were originally assigned.

Note: You cannot use fail back until the failed controller is replaced or repaired.

To fail back storage in an enclosure:

1. In the Enterprise view, click (enclosure).
2. Right-click Fail back storage.
3. Click Yes when prompted to confirm the action.
