2.
Plug the battery cable (supplied in the battery pack kit) into the battery pack.
3. Install the new battery pack into the server. (The installation site depends on the server. For further
information, refer to the server-specific user guide.)
4. Plug the other end of the battery cable into the connector on the cache module.
After installing a battery pack, you might see a POST message during reboot indicating that the array
accelerator (cache) is temporarily disabled. This behavior is normal because the new battery pack is likely to
have a low charge. You do not need to take any action because the recharge process begins automatically
when the battery pack is installed. The controller operates properly while the battery pack is recharging,
although the performance advantage of the array accelerator is absent. When the battery pack has been
charged to a predetermined level, the array accelerator is automatically enabled.
