1251.0. "HSJ50 external battery question" by XFMV01::AJITK () Tue May 13 1997 09:25

Hi 

This is regd the battery backup for cache in HSJ50.

The sales update mentions that this is in the form 
of external SBB module. 

I want to know where does this SBB fit, does it go
in the controller shelf (BA350-MB) ? 

Thanks in advance.

1251.1Any Empty SBB Slot Is OKSSDEVO::FAVA4 Yrs of Eng Sch & Never Saw a TrainTue May 13 1997 13:3814
	The External Cache Battery is contained in a standard SBB.  It will
	fit in the controller shelf ONLY if you have one power supply
	installed.

	If you have two power supplies in your BA350-M shelf, then you'll
	need to find any unused slot in a drive shelf.

	Note that the ECB does not draw any power directly from the
	backplane of the shelf that it's plugged into.  Power to charge
	the batteries comes through the cable attached to the cache module.

1251.2Yup just find a nice place to put it SSDEVO::RMCLEANTue May 13 1997 14:413
And... If you don't have any free slots... I have seen some people put it in 
the bottom of the cabinet loose.  As Tom said it can be put any place that
is available.
