Also, when the compute node disconnects from the midplane, the compute node powers off.

Step 4
Grasp the compute node handles and slide it partially out of the chassis.
Make sure to keep the compute node vertical while removing it.
Step 5
Place your other hand underneath the compute node to support it and slide the compute node completely out of the chassis.
Step 6
Once removed, place the compute node on an antistatic mat or antistatic foam if you are not immediately reinstalling it.
Step 7
Do one of the following:
a) If you will be installing another compute node, see
Installing a Compute Node, on page 13
b) If the compute node slot is to remain empty, reinstall the compute node blank panels (UCSX-9508-FSBK) to maintain
proper thermal temperatures and to keep dust out of the chassis.
Installing a Compute Node
Before you begin
The compute node must have its cover installed before installing it into the chassis to ensure adequate airflow.
Step 1
Remove a compute node blank.
See
Removing a Compute Node, on page 12
.
Step 2
Press the release button at the center of the compute node faceplate to release the ejectors.
While you are inserting the compute node, keep the ejectors open.
