Sun Storage 6180 Site Preparation Guide
Sun Storage 6180 arrays use smart battery technology which maintains and reports its own status, providing a more accurate reporting of battery status. When a battery can no longer hold a charge, the battery is flagged for replacement, rather than a battery expiration report provided by the array firmware.
