Answer
Spirent would expect these batteries to have a minimum service life of approximately 10 years.
When the battery begins to fail or has reached its life expectancy, then you may experience the following symptoms:-
The unit does not boot correctly, requiring a power cycle (GSS8000 users should also see article

)
The boot sequence takes much longer to complete, anything from 5 - 10 minutes, or longer.
If you begin to experience problems as described above then it is advisable to contact Spirent Global Services as follows
