Re: cache batteries

Thats a good policy, both of them. And any CE should be able to find it
with the card's FC/CCIN.
POWER gear complicated a little the stuff with you don't always find the
CCIN, for example some disks have the CCIN but most people call them by the
FC or the Option, complicates things...

I haven't failed them yet. Therefore no SRC. Here's the deal, I bring my
machines down once a quarter. And while it's true you can replace these
live most of the time, occasionally they swell and you have to bring the
machine down to do it. So I go into SST and check my cache batteries. (I
also go into iprconfig in Linux.) If any of them will go into warning
state in between my downtime coming up 9/13 and the next downtime 12/13,
then I'll replace them now. True, I may be replacing batteries that won't
even hit a warning state for 50+ days but I am NOT going to let them go
failed in between scheduled downtimes.

I concur, the CE should be able to find the battery from the 575C8009 SRC
and the 57B78009 SRC. In any case, googling the first part number throws 3
or 4 equivalents and that's before we get into compatible batteries from
OEMs....

Perhaps it's this local CE but I'm having an issue with cache batteries.

I

have a 575C card that needs a new cache battery. Hardware infocenter
calls cache battery 39J5555. And a 57B7 that needs a new cache battery.
Hardware infocenter calls cache battery 44V4145. CE says he can't find
neither of the part numbers 39J5555 nor 44V4145. Says they are not

valid

part numbers. How do I translate that for him?
