Declassify/Decommission the HSM Card

To Declassify/Decommission the SafeNet PCI-E HSM for disposal, or to ship back to Gemalto for repair, use the blade of a screwdriver, or other conductive tool to short-circuit the two pins of the Decommission header (J3) on the HSM card, located near the battery.
