The plugin is simply reporting what OMSA says, so if the info is wrong it would have to be in the hardware or OMSA level. However I don't think that this is the case. Batteries take a long time to charge for new servers, i.e. if the battery is brand new and hasn't been charged before. At one time we had a battery that didn't finish charging for a week, called Dell and got a replacement battery. This was during a regular charge cycle. In your case I would give it a few more days. > Also I tried to '--blacklist bat_charge=0,0' (and other combinations), but > blacklisting does not work. Look in the debug output for the battery ID, which consists of the controller number and battery number with colon as delimiter. In your case it would be --blacklist bat_charge=0:0 or simply use 'all': --blacklist bat_charge=all But, as we in fact did experience a case where the battery never finished charging I would advice against this. We just ignore the battery charge warnings unless they persist for days. It can be annoying, but we decided that we can live with it :) Cheers, -- Trond H.
