Battery Reconditioning
Batteries maintain power to the controller cache in the event of a power failure,
thus protecting any data that has not been written to a physical drive.
Reconditioning is the action of discharging and recharging a battery to preserve
its capacity and performance.
By default, each battery is reconditioned every two months. When the recondition
is completed, the battery’s cycle count increments by one.
See “Reconditioning a Battery” on page 74.
Spare Check
Spare Check verifies the status of your spare drives. Because spare drives are
not currently handling data, there are no settings for Spare Check.
See “Running Spare Check” on page 144.
Caution
Disabling or deleting the battery recondition schedule is NOT
recommended.
