Removing an existing SKM (appliance) from the system

Skip this step if you are installing a new appliance.

1.

Zeroize the original appliance. To do so, sign into the command line interface and enter the

following commands:
hostname# configure

hostname# reset factory settings zeroize
Confirm that you wish to perform the zeroize operation.
Allow the system to zeroize the contents of the appliance. During this process the appliance reboots

automatically several times. The process may take several minutes.

2.

Halt the system. At the end of the zeroize process the system displays the following:
Are you ready to begin setup?

(y/halt):

Type halt. After you confirm that you want to halt the system, the appliance begins a shutdown

process. This may take a few minutes and powers off the appliance.
Once the appliance has powered itself off it is ready to be removed and packaged for shipment.

3.

Release the power cables from the strain relief clip. Disconnect the Ethernet and power cables from

the appliance.

4.

Unlock and open the locking bezel cover.

5.

Loosen the thumbscrews on the front bezel to release the appliance from the rack.

6.

Close and re-lock the front bezel and remove the keys.

7.

Extend the appliance out of the rack until the slide rails lock into place.

8.

With another person, press the inner rail release latches. Pull the appliance out of the rack and set

it on a stable work surface.

9.

Remove the rails from the original appliance for reuse on the replacement appliance. To do so,

pull out on the tab of the rail that locks the center tab of the appliance, slide the rail forward,

and pull the rail off the appliance.

10.

Return the original appliance to HP according to the repackaging instructions sent separately.
