About this task
If your system is managed by the Hardware Management Console (HMC), use the HMC to repair a part in
the system. For instructions, see Repairing a part by using the HMC (www.ibm.com/support/

Procedure
1. Identify the part and the system that you are working on. For instructions, see Identifying a
part (www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER9/p9haj/sal.htm).
Use the blue identify LED on the enclosure to locate the system. Ensure that the serial number of the
system matches the serial number to be serviced.
2. Stop the system. For instructions, see Stopping a system (www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/
POWER9/p9haj/crustopsys.htm).
3. Label and disconnect the power cords from the system unit.
See Figure 86 on page 96 or Figure 87 on page 97.
Notes:
• This system might be equipped with two or more power supplies. If the removing and replacing
procedures require the system power to be turned off, ensure that all the power sources to the
system are disconnected.
• The power cord (B) is fastened to the system with hook-and-loop fastener (A). If you are placing the
system in a service position after you disconnect the power cords, ensure that you unstrap the
fastener.
