Use write-through mode
if battery charge is
below tolerance
If you enable this policy (the default) on a member with a single control module, the
cache uses write-through mode if the charge on the cache battery is low or if the
cache-to-ash module (on some array models) might not be able to back up the
memory contents to ash.
Alt+W
NOTE: For certain PS Series models that do not support write-through mode, not all cache control options are available.
See the hardware documentation for your PS Series array model.
