Replacing a ZS5-4 System Battery
Replacing a system battery is a cold-swap procedure, and you must remove power
from the storage controller. You might need to replace the battery if the
storage controller fails to maintain the proper time when powered off and
disconnected from the network. You will need a small (No.1 flat-blade)
non-metallic screwdriver or equivalent. Use the following procedure to replace a
ZS5-4 system battery.
-
Shut down the controller using one of the power-off methods described in
Powering Off the Controller.
-
Disconnect the AC power cords from the rear panel of the storage
controller.
![Caution Caution](graphics/caution.gif) | Caution -
Because 3.3 VDC standby power is always present in the system, you
must unplug the power cords before accessing any cold-serviceable
components.
|
-
Extend the controller from the rack as described in Extending the Controller from the Rack.
-
Remove the top cover as described in Removing the Controller Top Cover.
The battery (1) is located toward the back of the controller between PCIe
slot 1 and the power supply side wall.
-
If necessary, remove the PCIe card in slot 1 to access the battery. See
Replacing or Adding a ZS5-4 PCIe Card.
-
Remove the battery from the battery holder by pushing the back of the
battery, negative (-) side, toward the metal tab, on the positive (+) side,
and lifting the battery up and out of the battery holder.
Take care not to deform the tab when pushing against it.
![Caution Caution](graphics/caution.gif) | Caution -
Do not deform the metal tab on the positive (+) side of the battery.
The metal tab maintains the positive battery connection and secures the
battery in the holder.
|
-
Press the new battery into the battery holder with the positive (+) side
facing the metal tab that holds it in place.
The positive side of the battery is marked with a plus sign
(cross).
-
If you removed the PCIe card from slot 1, re-install it. See Replacing or Adding a ZS5-4 PCIe Card.
-
Replace the top cover on the chassis.
-
Return the controller to the normal rack position by pushing the release
tabs on the side of each rail while slowly pushing the storage controller
into the rack.
-
Reconnect all cables to their original ports, referring to the labels
previously added as a guide. For cabling details, see the
Oracle
ZFS Storage Appliance Cabling Guide
.
-
Connect the power cords to the power supplies.
-
Verify that standby power is on, indicated by the Power/OK status
indicator flashing on the front panel about two minutes after the power
cords are plugged in.
-
Press and release the recessed Power button on the storage controller
front panel. The Power/OK status indicator next to the Power button lights
and remains lit.
-
If you re-installed a PCIe card, connect the data cables to the PCIe card,
routing them through the cable management arm, if used.
-
When the system has finished booting, log in and set the time using the
steps in the BUI Clock task. For more information, see Setting Clock Synchronization (BUI) in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Administration Guide, Release OS8.8.0.
