Re: Disk Latency ESXi 5.1.0 799733 HP-ML350 G6

Hi,

Do you have the original Bill of Materials used to purchase the server? This would list if the P410i has a Battery or not - +1 this is the culprit here....

you can check if you have a battery from the ViClient Health Status - see here:

the official HP warning is here:
