node. Retention clips that secure the I/O expansion adapters must be in the closed position to
install the compute node cover.

Step 3. Hold the front of the compute node and slide the compute node cover forward to the closed

position, until it clicks into place.

1. Install the compute node into the chassis (see “Install a compute node ” on page 58 for instructions).

Install a compute node

Use this information to install a compute node.

To avoid possible danger, read and follow the following safety information.

S021

CAUTION:
Hazardous energy is present when the compute node is connected to the power source. Always
reinstall the compute node cover before installing the compute node.

Before you install a compute node:

Read “Installation Guidelines” on page 26 to ensure that you work safely.

To install a compute node, complete the following steps:

Watch the procedure
