As noted and from what I've read from IBM and seen our CE do, like you
say, fail the battery and it dumps the cache. He's done this multiple
times without ever taking the system down.

DrFranken / Dan...
I've heard stories about IBM CE's pulling the battery with the system
shut down without failing the battery first and wiping out systems.
Even happened to one of our uniform rental boxes, but that's not my
team so I don't have any details. Rob Berendt at Dekko mentions such
stories in a couple of posts in the archives...
perhaps PWRDWNSYS *IMMED vs PWRDWNSYS *CNTRLD makes a difference...
or perhaps the hardware itself makes a difference...
If it were me, I'd fail the cache first :)
