Procedure

1. Make preparations for this task.
   1. Power off the node (see Power off the node); then, disconnect all external cables from the node.
   2. Remove the node from the chassis (see Remove a node from the chassis); then, carefully lay the node on a flat, static-protective surface, orienting the node with the front toward you.
   3. Remove the top cover (see Remove the top cover).
   4. If the PCIe riser assembly is installed, remove it from the node and disconnect the PCIe cables from the system board (see Remove the PCIe riser assembly and Internal cable routing).
   5. Remove the power bus bar (see Remove the power bus bar).
2. Disconnect the power cable from the power distribution board.
3. Remove the power distribution board from the node.
   1. Remove the five screws that secure the power distribution board to the node.
   2. Slightly pull the power distribution board toward the front of the node; then, lift it out of the node.
