Battery Notes
Each battery works with a controller. If the battery is present in the subsystem but
the corresponding controller is not present, the battery will not appear in the
interface.
If a battery does not reflect normal conditions and it is not currently under
reconditioning, run the Recondition function before you replace the battery. See
“Reconditioning a Battery” on page 85.
During reconditioning, the battery is fully discharged then fully recharged. During
that time, the controller cache is reset to Write Thru, unless the Adaptive
Writeback Cache function is enabled. See “Making Controller Settings” on
page 80.
If a battery reaches the threshold temperature while charging or discharging, the
charge or discharge pauses and the blower runs at high speed until the battery
temperature falls below the threshold.
If the battery does not maintain normal values after a Recondition, replace the
battery. See “Replacing a Cache Battery” on page 184.
VTrak automatically reconditions the battery every two months. To set the
schedule, see “Scheduling an Activity” on page 49.
When you install a new battery, the cycle count shows 0. VTrak automatically
runs a recondition on the battery to verify it. If you restart the subsystem or
controller before reconditioning is finished, the battery is charged to 100%, then
reconditioning starts again.
Reconditioning a Battery
To recondition the battery:
1.
Click the Subsystem
icon in Tree View.
2.
Click the Enclosures
icon.
3.
Click the Enclosure
icon.
4.
Click the Battery tab in Management View.
5.
From the Battery tab dropdown menu, select
Recondition
.
6.
Click the
Submit
button.
During reconditioning, Battery status can show “discharging” and
“recharging”, and a value will display next to Current. During that time, the
controller cache is reset to Write Thru. Reconditioning runs in the
background and stops automatically upon completion.
VTrak automatically reconditions the battery every two months. To set the
recondition schedule, see “Scheduling an Activity” on page 49.
