The system is powered down, and the cache contains data that has not
yet been written to the drives. Restore system power as soon as
possible to prevent data loss.
Data preservation time is extended any time that 3.3 V auxiliary
power is available, as indicated by LED 2. In the absence of auxiliary
power, battery power alone preserves the data. A fully-charged
battery can normally preserve data for at least 2 days.
The battery lifetime also depends on the cache module size. For more
information, see the controller QuickSpecs on the HP website

the battery.
