Important: Removing the cache battery with the system or partition
already in a powered-off state might result in the loss of customer
data. If the system has been powered off prior to the battery service
action, you must IPL to DST and continue this procedure before
replacing the battery.

Do not depend on a power down flushing the cache....

Make sure the battery is flaged as failed/error in SST before pulling it.

I would reccomend that you make sure that you have done a normal power
down before replacing the battery so everything in cache gets written
to disk.
