Re: The cache for Smart Array P440ar in Embedded Slot has been disabled because the backup ope
Hi,
As checked the available information ,the battery count is 0
"Battery Count 0 (0x0000)
Battery Status 0x0000"
The cache for Smart Array P440ar in Embedded Slot has been disabled because the backup operation failed.
And the cache Cache Disable Code -Permanent Disable Flashlight Backup Operation Failed (0x001b)
> Suggesting you to verify if the smart storage battery is present in the server ILO and the status is OK.
> If the battery is OK,check the cache Status in Smart Storage Administrator If you are getting the option to Re-enable the Cache while selecting the smart array controller.
> Re-enable the cache if the option is showing in Smart storage administrator
> If there is no option in the smart storage administrator to re enable the cache and if the battery status is ok/Online ,then possible issue is Cache Module itself .
> Then you need to replace the smart array controller card, because the cache module is embedded.
> If the battery is not present or the battery status is failed ,then replace the smart storage battery

Re: The cache for Smart Array P440ar in Embedded Slot has been disabled because the backup
Thank you for your reply.
I have two servers with the same error. Your solution worked on one of the two.
I still have a error on one server. I have replaced the battery. And when I try to Re-enable Cache Module, I get the error " The operation failed. An unknown error occurred during execution."
