Can anybody give me a general procedure for replacing a controller or batteries in this array, or point me toward a document? I suspect that replacing the batteries might be easier, and probably safer, than swapping the entire controller.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: HP StorageWorks 30 with a dead battery pack
Can you confirm exactly which controller you've currently got...?
Assuming you mean an MSA30, that doesn't have a battery, it's just a disk shelf. The battery will be in whatever controller the shelf is connected to.
Cheers,
Rob

Re: HP StorageWorks 30 with a dead battery pack
You've almost certainly got a SmartArray 6402 that has one or more of its external ports connected to an MSA30.
The configuration for those is stored on the disks themselves, so if you don't want the hassle of changing the batteries, you can just swap the whole controller, and everything should just come back as it was before.
Cheers,
Rob
