Removing the power cable, Disengaging the locking mechanism for node B

Page 81 highlights

Figure 82. Removing the power cable 2. Disconnect the network and all other cables from the back of the I/O modules and network ports on the node. NOTE: Label the cables before you remove them. NOTE: Do not remove any cables from the other node. 3. Remove the node labels from the node handles. 4. Pull the orange release trigger while gently pushing in on the node. The hook disengages from the locking mechanism, and the release tab slides out. NOTE: The node comes completely out of the chassis. Be prepared to support the node to avoid dropping it. NOTE: The release trigger and handle for node B is on the top left. The release trigger and handle for node A is on the bottom right. CAUTION: Removing the incorrect node will lead to loss of system power and cached data will be lost. Figure 83. Disengaging the locking mechanism for node B 5. Before removing the node, ensure that the wire bail is properly secured to the power supply cable of the other node to prevent accidental loss of power and cache. 6. Use the release handle to pull the node outward enough to grasp the sides with both hands. Then, with both hands supporting the node, pull the node fully out of the enclosure.
