If you are replacing a server component or installing an optional device in the server, you need to take
out the node out from the rack enclosure, turn off the server and peripheral devices, and disconnect all
external cables.
To remove the node SATA cable, complete the following steps.
Step 1.
Remove the compute node (see “Removing a compute node from a chassis” on page 77).
Step 2.
Remove the air baffle (see “Removing the air baffle” on page 86).
Step 3.
Place your fingers on both ends of JPT1 and JP18; then, lift the SATA cable out of the server.
