  • 1.  Error: Disk Drive Bay 3 ROMB Battery 0: Failed - Assert

    I am getting this issue on one of the esxi-host. I did some research I found that it might be due to a failed RAID controller battery. How can I eliminate this error. Please help

    It's telling you exactly what to do.

    Open the physical host and replace the battery.

    I discussed this earlier here:

    Sure I will try that . I  was wondering why the system event logs are  getting full because of this error.I had to manually clear it. Is there someway through which I can stop it.

    Check idra/ilo server and see exactly what's the RAID controller status
