Quick Installation Guide
MegaRAID LSIiBBU07 Intelligent Battery Backup Unit
The MegaRAID LSIiBBU07 is an intelligent battery backup unit (iBBU) that protects the integrity of the cached data on a MegaRAID RAID controller for up to 72 hours in case of a complete AC power failure or a brief power outage.
Thank you for purchasing the LSI MegaRAID LSIiBBU07 product. Before you install your
RAID controller, take a few minutes to read this quick installation guide. If you need more information about any topic covered in this guide, refer to the related documents on your MegaRAID Universal Software Suite CD.
This quick installation guide explains how to install the LSIiBBU07 unit directly on your
RAID controller or connect the LSIiBBU07 unit remotely to the controller. The LSIiBBU07 unit, which is based on Lithium ion (LiON) battery cell technology, can be used in two application modes.
Mode 1: The LSIiBBU07 unit uses a small board-to-board connector to mount directly to the following serial-attached SCSI (SAS) redundant array of independent drive (RAID) controllers:
— MegaRAID SAS 8880EM2
— MegaRAID SAS 9260-4i
— MegaRAID SAS 9260-8i
— MegaRAID SAS 9260DE-8i
— MegaRAID SAS 9261-8i
— MegaRAID SAS 9280-4i/4e
— MegaRAID SAS 9280-8e
— MegaRAID SAS 9280DE-8e
Mode 2: The LSIiBBU07 unit connects remotely to the following SAS RAID controllers using a 12-in. cable or a 12-in. cable and a daughtercard:
— MegaRAID SAS 8880EM2
— MegaRAID SAS 9261-8i
— MegaRAID SAS 9280-4i/4e
— MegaRAID SAS 9280-8e
— MegaRAID SAS 9280DE-8e
To mount the LSIiBBU07 unit directly, follow the steps in
Directly on a MegaRAID SAS RAID Controller
.
To connect the LSIiBBU07 unit remotely, follow the steps in

NOTE: The procedures in this guide describe how to install the LSIiBBU07 unit on the
SAS 8880EM2 RAID controller. You can connect the LSIiBBU07 unit in the same way to the other MegaRAID SAS RAID controllers that use this iBBU. For information about the battery backup unit (BBU) connectors on the RAID controllers, refer to the Battery
Backup Units for MegaRAID SAS RAID Controllers User Guide or the MegaRAID 6Gb/s SAS
RAID Controllers User Guide .
LSI provides a family of MegaRAID iBBUs for use with its high-performance MegaRAID
RAID controllers. The LSI MegaRAID iBBUs provide an inexpensive alternative to using an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and a second level of fault tolerance when used with a UPS.

5. Place the controller on a flat, clean, static-free surface, and continue with the next procedure.
Follow these steps to connect the remote LSIiBBU07 unit to the BBU connector on the
RAID controller.
1. Ground yourself, and remove the LSIiBBU07 unit from the package.
2. Use the three Phillips®-head screws that are provided to secure the LSIiBBU07 unit to the motherboard or the server chassis.
3. Insert the battery pack harness connector into the J4 connector on the back side of
the LSIiBBU07, as shown in Figure 1
.
4. Connect one end of the 12-in., 20-pin cable to the J2 connector on the LSIiBBU07 daughtercard and the other end of the cable to the J10 battery backup connector of
the SAS 8880EM2 RAID controller, as shown in Figure 4
