Removing the compute module

Prerequisites
CAUTION:

Before removing the compute module, verify that the compute module is in standby mode. In standby mode, the system power LED is off or solid amber. Also, verify that the UID LED is off or solid blue.

Procedure
  1. Identify the proper compute module.
  2. Power down the compute module.
  3. Remove the compute module from the frame.
    WARNING:

    To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system components to cool before touching them.

  4. Place the compute module on a flat, level work surface.
    CAUTION:

    To prevent damage to electrical components, properly ground the compute module before beginning any installation procedure. Improper grounding can cause ESD.

  5. Install the compute module end cap.

To replace the component, reverse the removal procedure.
