Replacing a Storage Controller

Storage controllers provide the following data path and storage management functions for the storage system:

•Monitoring and controlling some storage system environment elements such as temperature, fan, power supplies, and storage system LEDs

•Controlling access to hard drives

•Communicating storage attributes and states to the storage system

NOTE: Do not return the storage controller battery with the failed storage controller. A new battery is not included with a replacement storage controller.
