Replacing the tethered battery of a PERC 9 mini blade card

The tethered battery attached to the PERC 9 mini blade card can be replaced. This tethered battery feature is applicable only to the PowerEdge FC630 and FC830 systems.

1.Turn off the system, including any attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet and peripherals.

NOTE: It is recommended that you always use a static mat and static strap while working on components in the interior of the system.

2.Open the system.

3.Locate the battery carrier of the PERC card on the system board.

4.Push the tab on the battery carrier forward until the battery carrier disengages from the slot of the chassis.
