Servicing the Battery
Servicing the Battery
The real-time clock (RTC) battery maintains system time when the server is powered off and
a time server is unavailable. If the server fails to maintain the proper time when the system is
powered off and not connected to a network, replace the battery.
Caution - Ensure that all power is removed from the server before removing or installing
the battery. You must disconnect the power cables from the system before performing this
procedure.
