Quick Installation Guide

MegaRAID® LSIiBBU08 Intelligent Battery Backup Unit

The LSI™ MegaRAID LSIiBBU08 is an intelligent battery backup unit (iBBU) that protects the integrity of the cached data on a MegaRAID RAID controller for up to 48 hours (depending on the derated retention time selected) in case of a complete AC power failure or a brief power outage.

Thank you for purchasing the LSI MegaRAID LSIiBBU08. Before you install your RAID controller, please take a few minutes to read this quick installation guide. If you need more information about any topic covered in this guide, refer to the related documents on your MegaRAID Universal Software Suite CD.

This quick installation guide explains how to install the LSIiBBU08 directly or remotely with your RAID controller. The LSIiBBU08, which is based on Lithium ion (LiON) battery cell technology, can be used in two application modes:

Mode 1: The LSIiBBU08 uses a small board-to-board connector to mount directly to the following SAS RAID controllers:

 MegaRAID SAS 9260-4i

 MegaRAID SAS 9260-8i

 MegaRAID SAS 9261-8i

 MegaRAID SAS 9280-4i4e

 MegaRAID SAS 9280-8e

Mode 2: The LSIiBBU08 connects remotely to the following SAS RAID controllers using a 12-inch cable or, where applicable (*), a 12-inch cable and a remote interposer board that are sold separately in a Remote Battery Kit:

 MegaRAID SAS 9260-4i*

 MegaRAID SAS 9260-8i*

 MegaRAID SAS 9260-16i

 MegaRAID SAS 9261-8i

 MegaRAID SAS 9280-4i4e

 MegaRAID SAS 9280-8e

 MegaRAID SAS 9280-16i4e

 MegaRAID SAS 9280-24i4e

3. Remove the cover from the computer, according to the instructions in the system user’s manual, to allow access to the controller.

4. Unplug all cables from the controller, remove the screw attaching the bracket to the computer chassis, and carefully remove the controller from the slot.

5. Place the controller on a flat, clean, static-free surface, and continue with the next procedure.

Installing the LSIiBBU08 on the RAID Controller

Follow these steps to install the LSIiBBU08 on the front of the SAS 9280-8e RAID controller.

WAR NIN G: Danger of an explosion exists if the battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

1. Ground yourself and make sure the system is grounded.

2. Remove the LSIiBBU08 daughtercard from the package.

3. Place the LSIiBBU08 front-side-up on a flat, clean, static-free surface.

4. With the front side up, place the RAID controller on a flat, clean, static-free surface.

5. Hold the LSIiBBU08 daughtercard so that the battery side is up and the J1 connector lines up with the J6B1 BBU connector on the SAS 9280-8e RAID controller, as shown in the following figure.

NOTE: See the MegaRAID 6Gb/s SAS RAID Controllers User’s Guide for the BBU connectors to use on the other RAID controllers that use the LSIiBBU08.

7. Secure the LSIiBBU08 to the RAID controller with the screws and the standoffs in the three screwholes.

Reinstalling the RAID Controller on the Motherboard

The standoffs are threaded at both ends, and a screw goes into each end. The screw threads from the back of the controller board into the board-to-board standoffs on the bottom of the LSIiBBU08.

CAUTION: Center the screwdriver carefully to avoid stripping the screw heads. Do not overtighten the screws.

Follow these steps to reinstall the RAID controller on a motherboard.

1. With the power to the chassis still turned off, and the power cords unplugged, make sure the chassis is grounded and has no AC power.

2. Install the RAID controller in a PCI Express slot on the motherboard, as shown in

Figure3.

NOTE: Some PCI Express slots support only PCI Express graphics cards; if a RAID controller is installed in one of these slots, it will not function. Refer to your computer documentation for information about the PCI Express slot.

3. Press down gently but firmly to seat the card correctly in the slot.

5. Place the controller on a flat, clean, static-free surface, and continue with the next procedure.

Connecting the Remote LSIiBBU08 Follow these steps to connect the remote LSIiBBU08 to the BBU connector on the RAID

controller.

1. Ground yourself and make sure the system is grounded.

2. Remove the LSIiBBU08 from the package.

3. Use the three Phillips-head screws that are provided to secure the LSIiBBU08 to the motherboard or the server chassis.

4. Connect one end of the 12-inch, 20-pin cable (included in the remote battery kit) to the J2 connector on the LSIiBBU08, and the other end to the J6B1 BBU connector on the SAS 9280-8e RAID controller RAID controller, as shown in the following figure.

The black triangles on the connectors help you install them properly. Insert the cable connectors so that the black triangles are aligned.
