Replacing a RAID adapter battery remotely in the server

When you install any RAID adapter in the server that come with batteries, the
RAID batteries must be installed remotely to prevent the batteries from

To install the RAID adapter battery in the RAID battery tray, complete the
following steps:
1. Read the safety information that begins on page "Safety" on page vii and
"Installation guidelines" on page 261.
2. Install the RAID adapter on the riser-card and install the riser-card assembly in
the server (see "Replacing a PCI riser-card assembly" on page 337).
3. Install the memory tray or DIMM air baffle (whichever is installed in the
server). See "Replacing the memory tray" on page 267 and "Replacing the
DIMM air baffle" on page 271).
4. Install the battery in the RAID battery tray:
a. Align the new battery with the slots on the battery carrier and insert the
battery under the battery clip; then, press the battery down into the battery
carrier until it snaps in place and is firmly seated.
