[Firefighting] ROJ RAID battery

The batteries on the A1000s are nearing the end of their life again. Some notes on what to look for.

  • Hardware error 3FD9 is the warning that the battery is getting old but not yet expired. Look for this in the GUI.
  • /usr/sbin/osa is the home for rm6, raidutil, and other goodies. rm6 is the GUI. raidutil can show battery age, reset battery age, and enable/disable write caching.
