Notes:

1.

When

you

restart

the

server

for

the

first

time

after

you

install

a

ServeRAID-8k

SAS

controller,

the

monitor

screen

remains

blank

while

the

controller

initializes

the

battery.

This

might

take

a

few

minutes,

after

which

the

startup

process

continues.

This

is

a

one-time

occurrence.

Important:

You

must

allow

the

initialization

process

to

be

completed.

If

you

do

not,

the

battery

pack

will

not

work,

and

the

server

might

not

start.

The

battery

comes

partially

charged,

at

30%

or

less

of

capacity.

Run

the

server

for

4

to

6

hours

to

fully

charge

the

controller

battery.

The

LED

just

above

the

battery

on

the

controller

remains

lit

until

the

battery

is

fully

charged.

Until

the

battery

is

fully

charged,

the

controller

firmware

sets

the

controller

cache

to

write-through

mode;

after

the

battery

is

fully

charged,

the

controller

firmware

re-enables

write-back

mode.
