Removal and replacement procedures 38
o
If the server blade has failed, remove the controller, cache module ("Removing the cache module"
on page 34), and capacitor pack ("Removing the battery pack or capacitor pack" on page 35)
from the failed server blade, and install the controller, cache module, and capacitor pack in the
recovery server blade.
5. Power up the recovery server blade. A 1792 POST message appears, stating that valid data was
flushed from the cache. This data is now stored on the drives in the recovery server blade. You can now
transfer the drives (and controller, if one is used) to another server blade.
