Reconditioning a Battery
A cache backup battery or Battery Backup Unit (BBU) is optional on VessRAID.

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, choose Recondition.

Reconditioning fully discharges, then fully recharges the battery. During
reconditioning, if the Adaptive Writeback Cache function is enabled, the
controller cache is set to Write Thru. After reconditioning, the cache is reset
to Write Back. See “Making Controller Settings” on page 96.
VessRAID automatically reconditions the battery every two months. To set
the recondition schedule, see “Scheduling an Activity” on page 58.
