FRU maintains electrical current to the controllers for up to three days. Thus, all data stored in memory will be preserved as long as the batteries can sustain power to the cache memory. IBM 2102 Model F10 and Model D00 Service Guide...
Under these circumstances, try replacing the battery harness first. Attention: This product contains a SEALED LEAD ACID BATTERY. When the battery assembly is replaced, the used battery assembly must be returned to IBM for proper disposal. Chapter 6. Power System...
Symptom: Loss of battery backup during a power outage. 1. Possible Cause: Battery failure or battery FRU is missing. a. Replace the battery FRU using the instructions on “Replacing the Battery FRU” on page 116. IBM 2102 Model F10 and Model D00 Service Guide...
Checking the Battery Service Date Note: Under normal circumstances, replace the battery FRU every two years. Using the controller module in a hot environment (above 35° C or 95° F), lowers the life expectancy of the battery FRU. Under these conditions you may need to replace the battery every six months.
Use this procedure to replace the battery FRU as part of routine maintenance. 1. Unpack the battery FRU. Save the shipping material for returning the used battery FRU to IBM for disposal. (Figure 57 on page 113). v Record today’s date on the blank line next to “Date of Installation.”...
When properly charged, both Full Charge LEDs will be glowing on the front of the battery FRU. 8. Using the original shipping material, return the used battery FRU to IBM for proper disposal. Attention: This product contains a SEALED LEAD ACID BATTERY. When the battery assembly is replaced, the used battery assembly must be returned to IBM for proper disposal.

All Fibre Channel Storage Manager applications and StorWatch RAID Fibre Channel Specialist must be closed prior to starting the drvDLoad utility. 3. You must copy the new drive firmware file(s) to the host system before starting the drvDLoad utility.
