Use this information to remove a compute node from a NeXtScale nx360 M4 compute node.
To remove the compute node from a chassis, complete
the following steps:
- Open the front handle as shown in the illustration. The
compute node moves out of the node bay approximately 0.6 cm (0.25
inch).

a chassis
Attention: - To maintain proper system cooling, do not operate the IBM NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure without
a compute node or node bay filler installed in each node bay.
- When you remove the compute node, note the node bay number. Reinstalling
a compute node into a different node bay from the one it was removed
from can have unintended consequences. Some configuration information
and update options are established according to node bay number. If
you reinstall the compute node into a different node bay, you might
have to reconfigure the compute node.
- Pull the compute node out of the node bay.
- Install either a node bay filler or another compute node
in the node bay within 1 minute.
If you are instructed to return the compute node, follow
all packaging instructions, and use any packaging materials for shipping
that are supplied to you.
