HP (Hewlett-Packard) DL320 G6 Server User Manual


 
Hardware options installation 43
CAUTION: After the server is powered down, wait 15 seconds and then check the amber LED
before unplugging the cable from the cache module. If the amber LED blinks after 15
seconds, do not remove the cable from the cache module. The cache module is backing up
data, and data is lost if the cable is detached.
IMPORTANT: The battery pack might have a low charge when installed. In this case, a POST
error message is displayed when the server is powered up, indicating that the battery pack is
temporarily disabled. No action is necessary on your part. The internal circuitry automatically
recharges the batteries and enables the battery pack. This process might take up to four
hours. During this time, the cache module functions properly, but without the performance
advantage of the battery pack.
NOTE: The data protection and the time limit also apply if a power outage occurs. When
power is restored to the system, an initialization process writes the preserved data to the hard
drives.
To install the component:
1. Power down the server (on page 16).
2. Remove the server from the rack (on page 16).
3. Remove the access panel (on page 17).
4. Install the storage controller, if not installed ("Storage controller option" on page 40).
5. Install the cache module on the controller.
