This section provides instructions on how to install the ThinkServer 8708ELP SAS

RAID adapter (hereafter referred to as the RAID controller within this section).

To install the RAID controller, do the following:

Note: Use any documentation that comes with the RAID controller and follow

those instructions in addition to the instructions in this section.

1. Remove all media from the drives and turn off all attached devices and the

server. Then, disconnect all power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect

all cables that are connected to the server.

2. Remove the server cover. See “Removing the server cover” on page 42.

3. Touch the static-protective package that contains the RAID controller to any

unpainted surface on the outside of the server. Then, remove the RAID

controller from the package.

4. Depending on your RAID controller, you might need to install a ThinkServer

8708ELP SAS RAID adapter battery (hereafter referred to as the battery card

assembly) on the RAID controller. The battery card assembly mounts directly to

the RAID controller using a small board-to-board connector (daughtercard). To

install the battery card assembly on the RAID controller, do the following:

Notes:

a. The battery card assembly protects the integrity of the cached data on the

RAID controller by providing backup power up to 72 hours in the case of a

complete ac power failure or a brief power outage. It has built-in

functionality to charge the battery pack automatically and to communicate

battery status information such as voltage, temperature, and current to your

server. It also provides an inexpensive alternative to using an

uninterruptible power supply, and a second level of fault tolerance when

used in conjunction with an uninterruptible power supply. For more

information about the battery card assembly, see Appendix A, “RAID

battery card assembly,” on page 121.

b. The battery card assembly option kit contains a user guide, the battery card

assembly, and three Phillips-head screws. Do not remove the battery card

assembly from the antistatic shipping container until you are ready to install

it. When you remove the battery card assembly from your server, place it in

its original container.

c. Check the appropriate support Web sites for the latest updates for your

basic input/output system (BIOS) code, utility programs, device drivers,

and other software applications. Follow the instructions provided by your

Service Provider to download and install updates.

d. It is recommended that you replace the battery pack on the battery card

assembly annually or after 500 recharging cycles, whichever comes first.

e. The temperature of the battery card assembly is generally 15–20 degrees

higher than the ambient temperature during fast charge. Therefore, to

complete fast charge cycle, the ambient temperature should be less than 45

degrees. If the ambient temperature exceeds 45 degrees, the fast charge

cycle will terminate prematurely, thus preventing the battery card assembly

from reaching a fully charged state.
