Battery Settings
A smart battery backup unit (BBU) can perform a learn cycle. The smart BBU
module includes the battery, a battery gas gauge, and a battery charger. The
learn cycle calibrates the smart battery gas gauge so that it provides a
measurement of the charge of the battery module. A learn cycle can only start
when the battery is fully charged.
The learn cycle completes the following operations:
• Discharges the battery to a predetermined threshold
• Charges the battery back to full capacity
A learn cycle starts automatically when you install a new battery module.
Learn cycles for batteries in both RAID controller modules in a duplex system
occur simultaneously.
Learn cycles are scheduled to start automatically at regular intervals, at the
same time and on the same day of the week. The interval between cycles is
described in weeks.
