Replacing or adding a battery

CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage electronic components. Be sure you are properly grounded before beginning this procedure. For more information, see "Electrostatic Discharge (on page 37)."

1.Close all applications, and then power down the server. This procedure flushes all data from the cache.

2.Observe the BBWC Status LED ("Battery pack LEDs" on page 35).

If the LED is blinking every 2 seconds, data is still trapped in the cache. Restore system power, and repeat the previous steps in this procedure.

If the LED is not lit, proceed with the next step.

WARNING: There is a risk of explosion, fire, or personal injury if the battery pack is not properly handled. Refer to "Battery replacement notice (on page 40)" before installing or removing any item that contains a battery pack.

3.Remove the controller from the server.

4.Pull the flanges on the battery clip outward (1), and then swivel the clip 180 degrees so that it rests on the batteries (2).

5.Slide the batteries toward the right edge of the controller, away from the bracket.
