amber and the power is off, there is unsaved data in the cache. Do NOT power
down the VessRAID while this LED is on. See "Browser Does Not Connect to
WebPAM PROe" on page 287 for more information.
If the battery LED is amber or red, try reconditioning the battery. See
"Reconditioning a Battery" on page 90 or page 135. If the condition returns,
replace the battery.

CLU Reports a Problem

The CLU reports information passively—you must determine which functions to
check based on the sound of the VessRAID's buzzer and any amber or red
LEDs. See page 251 through 255.
Check the event logs first. Then check the reported component.
