RAID Controller Module Backup Battery Unit The battery backup unit provides backup power to the RAID controllers in case of power failure. It ensures power backup for at least 30 minutes to facilitate moving of memory stored in the controller cache to persistent storage.
Installing The RAID Controller Module Backup Battery Unit You must replace the RAID controller battery backup unit immediately to ensure the security of the data in the controller cache memory. CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician.
NOTE: The Service action required indicator lights amber when there is a fault in the power supply module. 2. Disconnect the power cable from the power source and the power supply module you intend to remove and remove the cables from the cable securing strap.
CAUTION: When connecting the power cable, secure the cable with the cable securing bracket. NOTE: When installing or hot-swapping a new power supply module, allow several seconds for the system to recognize the power supply module and determine its status.

4 Troubleshooting your system Safety first—for you and your system CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team.
NOTE: Equip yourself with antistatic protection and a replacement small form-factor pluggable (SFP +) transceiver before replacing an SFP+ transceiver in the RAID controller module. Also, see the initial setup information for the enclosure to verify LED definitions.
8. Reconnect the fiber optic cable. 9. View the FC IN speed LEDs and the Physical Disk Channel speed LEDs. Based on the LED status, perform one of these actions: • If at least one of the FC IN LEDs for each port is on, go to step 11. • Both the FC IN LEDs on an MD storage array RAID controller module enclosure for a particular port are off.
NOTE: After installing a power supply module, allow several seconds for the array to recognize the power supply module and to determine if it is working properly. If the problem is not resolved, see Getting Help . Troubleshooting Array Cooling Problems CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician.
If The Link Status LEDs Are Not Green 1. Turn off the host server. 2. Reseat the cables on the expansion array and the server. 3. Turn on the expansion arrays and then the storage array and wait until the system is fully booted. 4. Turn on the host server.
4. Reinstall the physical disk. 5. If the problem is not resolved, replace the failed physical disk. If the problem persists, see Getting Help . Troubleshooting Array And Expansion Enclosure Connections 1. Verify the following: • the SAS OUT status LED is green 2.
Troubleshooting A Damaged Array CAUTION: Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or telephone service and support team.
