NOTE

As an alternative to waiting six hours, you may proceed now with the installation and getting started steps described in subsequent chapters of this manual. Then, when you perform the steps de- scribed in Chapter 4, Installing and Using the RAID Array 410 Manager for Windows NT, you will be able to check the status of the batteries. This is described in Section 4.4, Setting Controller Communications. If the battery status shows “good,” you may then continue, and create your configuration.
