Take ESD precautions when performing this replacement

The chassis is designed to dissipate all electrostatic discharge (ESD) to the chassis base. Ensure that there is sufficient electrical and mechanical connection from the chassis base to the rack rails, and that the rack itself is tied to earth ground. The unit must be grounded in accordance with all local/regional and national electrical codes.

Some components within the node contain static-sensitive parts. Precautions must be taken to ensure that the system is not exposed to ESD while handling components or servicing the unit. To avoid damaging these parts while performing maintenance procedures, always observe the following precautions:

Keep static-sensitive parts in their original shipping containers until ready for installation.
Do not place static-sensitive parts on a metal surface. Place them inside their protective shipping bag or on an anti-static mat.
Wear anti-static wrist bands when unpacking and handling the units, and avoid touching connectors and other components.
Dry climates and cold-weather heating environments have lower relative humidity and are more likely to produce static electricity.

Remove power from the server node.

Hold down the power button for at least 4 seconds.

Note: The power button applies or removes primary power from the power supply to the node but maintains standby power. Once the node has powered down, unplug the power cords to the node power supplies to remove all power.
