• If you remove the TPM, the TPM function is unavailable.

power cords from electrical outlets and disconnect all cables that are connected to the server.

clean, and static-protective surface. See the Rack Installation Instructions that comes with the server.
3. Remove the server cover. See “Removing the server cover” on page 69.
