Optional devices cannot be added or removed during continuous operation.
After shutting down OS, check that the server is powered off, disconnect all power cords and interface
cables from the server before installing or removing the optional devices.
To remove the CPU/IO module during the continuous operation of this server, disable the intended CPU/IO

Before removing the screws from the CPU/IO modules, change the CPU/IO module to off-line state by
using the ft server utility or the NEC ESMPRO Manager.
