Use this information to remove the node SATA cable from the server.

  1. Remove the compute node (see Removing a compute node from a chassis).
  2. Remove the air baffle (see Removing the air baffle).
  3. Place your fingers on both ends of JPT1 and JP18; then, lift the SATA cable out of the server.
