If any components are missing or damaged, contact your vendor or HP support immediately.
4. 설정 및 설치
This section details the steps for installing the 512MB BBWC module into a compatible HP SmartArray controller.
4.1 설치 전 체크리스트
- Ensure the server is powered off and disconnected from all power sources.
- Open the server chassis according to the server's service manual.
- Locate the HP SmartArray controller where the BBWC module will be installed. Refer to your server's documentation for the exact location.
- Prepare an anti-static workspace.
4.2 모듈 설치
- Carefully remove the BBWC module from its anti-static packaging.
- Identify the BBWC slot on the SmartArray controller. This slot is typically a dedicated memory slot.
- Align the module with the slot, ensuring the gold connectors are correctly oriented. The module is keyed to fit in only one direction.
- Apply even pressure to both ends of the module until it is fully seated in the slot. You may hear a click as the retention clips engage.
- If your SmartArray controller uses a separate battery pack for the BBWC, connect the battery cable to the designated port on the controller or module. Ensure the connection is secure.

4.3 설치 후
- Close the server chassis.
- Reconnect all power cords and power on the server.
- During server boot, observe the POST messages for any errors related to the SmartArray controller or BBWC module.
5. 모듈 작동 방법
The HP 512MB BBWC module operates automatically once installed and recognized by the SmartArray controller. Its primary function is to provide a non-volatile cache for write operations, improving disk I/O performance and protecting data in the event of a power failure.
5.1 Verifying Operation
To verify the module's operational status:
- Access the SmartArray controller's configuration utility (e.g., during server boot via a key press, or through HP's management software like HP System Management Homepage).
- Navigate to the controller's cache settings. The 512MB BBWC should be detected and reported as active.
- Check the battery status within the utility. A newly installed battery may require a full charge cycle.
6. 유지관리
The BBWC module itself is generally maintenance-free. However, the associated battery pack has a finite lifespan and requires periodic monitoring and eventual replacement.
6.1 배터리 모니터링
- Regularly check the battery status through the SmartArray controller's management utility.
- Look for warnings or errors indicating a low charge, failed battery, or battery nearing end-of-life.
- The typical lifespan of a BBWC battery varies but is generally several years.
6.2 배터리 교체
If the battery requires replacement:
- Obtain a compatible replacement battery pack from HP or an authorized reseller.
- Follow the safety precautions outlined in Section 2.
- Power off the server and disconnect power.
- Locate and disconnect the old battery pack.
- Connect the new battery pack, ensuring proper orientation and secure connection.
- 폐배터리는 지역 규정에 따라 책임감 있게 폐기하십시오.
- Power on the server and verify the new battery status in the controller utility.
7. 문제 해결
