When ours went on our 810, there was no warning. It occurred during a
software upgrade and things got real slow. Called IBM and our regular CE
was off, his replacement didn't have the correct battery and we were
down for about 6 hours waiting for a new one to arrive. The newer
controller cards use a different battery, so check ahead.

I don't think you'll lose any data.  But performance will suffer
greatly. 
One thing I have schedule to run about a week prior to scheduled
downtime (have to give the CE time to order parts and schedule) is

Impending cache battery pack failure






We had this message on the system console on our model 800 yesterday:

*Attention*  Contact your hardware service provider.

Which indicated that we will have to replace the battery soon.  How 
soon?  The disks are still showing in operational status so I am not 
sure what triggers the "impending" message.  Anybody have experience 
with actually waiting until it failed and how long that took?  I'd like 
to put off bringing the system down until the weekend but, if impending 
meant hours, I'd better get on it tonight.

Thanks,

Pete Helgren
