| Description | BBU Recondition suggested |
| More Information | According to dell: Cause: The controller detects a new battery. The charge of the battery dropped below 85% more than 30 times. The battery was temporarily disconnected from the controller from a fan pack pull. The controller was removed and replaced Resolution: This message will appear each time the controller is (re)booted until the BBU is manually reconditioned. In this state, the battery is still protecting the controller cache, but the maximum level of the battery may be uncertain. To re-establish the maximum level, you can perform a BBU recondition at your convenience using the procedure described in the ""Recondition"" section. Be aware that the reconditioning process takes several hours. The recondition process must complete its full cycle without interruption. Interrupting the recondition will invalidate the recondition, thus the next invocation will start at the beginning of the cycle. In other words, the recondition process cannot be suspended and then restarted in the middle of the process. The BBU requires an automatic and a manual recondition before the maximum level will be accurate. Until the first manual recondition is completed, the maximum level from the battery specifications is used. The automatic recondition will start if one of the following event occurs: When powering up a new PowerVault 660F storage system for the first time When reinstalling or replacing a fan pack into the PowerVault 660F storage system When reinstalling or replacing a PowerVault 660F storage system After the automatic recondition is complete, Array Manager will show ""BBU Recondition Suggested"" when the system is rebooted. After manually reconditioning the BBU, go to the Array Manager console and click to expand the Arrays storage object, right-click the PV660F Subsystem storage object, and select Rescan from the context menu that comes up. This action updates Array Manager on the status of the BBU. If the ""BBU Recondition Suggested"" error message continues to be displayed after you have manually reconditioned the BBU twice, then the battery may be defective and require replacement. In this case, see the Dell PowerVault 660F and 224F Storage Systems Service Manual for part replacement procedures" |
