Subject: RE: Cache Battery
Jerry:
The CE needs to take the system to a restricted state, and will most likely power down the system, that's the reason for needing the console. That's to be sure the cache is cleared before the batteries are changed. Besides that I'll bet that card controls all the DASD (or at least the load source) so, when the card is pulled to change the battery, the system will go down hard anyway if it's not brought down nicely.
Yes, a console is a requirement.
DEGRADED most likely means the cache is turned off due to the days count on
the batteries. System runs but very slowly.
