WARNING! Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources are disconnected from
the server prior to performing this procedure.
Voltages are present at various locations in the server whenever an AC power source is connected.
These voltages are present even when the main power switch is in the off position.

ESD safety precautions can result in damage to the server.

The fan/display board is also the secondary location of the UUID for the server. Do not remove
the system board and fan/display board at the same time, or the UUID is deleted from the server.
The procedure for removing the fan/display board for the Data Center server is the same for the
