Removing the DIMM and Battery from a PERC 6/E
Adapter

NOTE:

The TBBU on the PERC 6/E adapter consists of a DIMM and battery backup

unit.

This section describes how to remove the TBBU from a PERC 6/E adapter
that is currently installed in a system.

1 Perform a controlled shutdown on the system in which the PERC 6/E

adapter is installed, as well as any attached storage enclosures, and remove
the PERC 6/E adapter from the system by following the instructions
detailed in "Removing the PERC 6/E and PERC 6/i Adapters" on page 50.

2 Visually inspect the controller and determine whether the dirty cache LED

on the DIMM is illuminated. See Figure 4-9. If the LED is illuminated,
reinsert the controller into the system, replace the system cover, reconnect
the system to power, turn the system on and repeat
