switches for both power supply units.
Caution – After stopping all the domains, be sure to switch off the main line
switches in the power supply system to completely shut off the supply of power.
6. Connect the clip of the antistatic wrist strap and of the antistatic mat to the
server grounding port. See Section 1.4, “Antistatic Precautions” on page 1-6.
7. Ensure that the metallic underside of the wrist strap is in direct contact with
your skin. The wrist strap should be snug around the wrist so that it does not
rotate. See Section 1.4, “Antistatic Precautions” on page 1-6.
Caution – Before handling FRUs, be sure to connect the clip of the antistatic wrist
strap and of the antistatic mat to the server grounding port, and attach the band of
the wrist strap to one of your wrists. Place the FRUs on the grounded antistatic mat.
Failure to take these antistatic measures might result in serious damage.

in the base and the expansion cabinets, and then use a flathead screwdriver
to remove the data cables.
