Removing the DIMM and Battery from a PERC 5/E Adapter
NOTE:
The TBBU on the PERC 5/E Adapter consists of a DIMM and battery backup unit.
This section describes how to remove the TBBU from a PERC 5/E Adapter that is currently installed in
a system.
1 Perform a controlled shutdown on the system in which the PERC 5/E Adapter is installed, as well as
any attached storage enclosures, and remove the PERC 5/E Adapter from the system by following the
instructions detailed in "Removing the PERC 5/E Adapter" on page 30.
2 Visually inspect the controller and determine whether the dirty cache LED on the DIMM is
illuminated. See Figure 3-6. If the LED is illuminated, reinsert the controller into the system, replace
the system cover, reconnect the system to power, turn the system on and repeat step 1.
