Remove the internal adapter bracket

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.
      Note

      If necessary, press the release clip with a flat-head screwdriver to remove an external network cable from the rear of a 2U 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.
      Note

      • When removing the node, note the node tray number and make sure to install the node in the same tray from which it was removed. Reinstalling the node into a different tray requires the node to be reconfigured.
      • For safety, make sure to hold the node with both hands when lifting the node.
   3. Remove the top cover (see Remove the top cover).
2. Disconnect all the cables from the CFF RAID adapter.
3. Remove the internal adapter bracket from the node.
   1. Pull both plungers on the sides of the internal adapter bracket to disengage the bracket from the node.
   2. Carefully lift the internal adapter bracket out of the node.
