If this is urgent, you should be talking to HP Support.

Noman,
I am assuming that your storage is MOD12 or 12H.
in that case, each controller has its own battery.
when the controller is pulled out of the enclosure, a battery compartment will be visible on the side.

you will need to get the Part number from the defective battery and order a replacment from HP.

Noman,
Haveing a faulty battery on a controller means lossing the cache memory when you loose your power to the array.
If your data is importent to you I suggest to replace the battery as soon as possible.
