Deleting SP node/Frame out of order

I am responsible for decommissioning an SP node and SP frame in my complex. I have read the instructions in the admin guide and I am concerned about one thing that I hope this group can assist me with.

I have two physical frames, frame 1 is fully populated with 8 silver wide nodes and an SP switch, frame 2 houses a single wide node, and frame 3 is actually an SP attached 6M1.

I need to delete the single node in frame 2 and then the frame itself, so IBM can physically take it back as part of an end of lease contract. My concern is that the admin guide says that you should delete your frames from the end first, or you will have to reconfigure the SDR. However I couldn't find enough information on how or what to reconfigrue in the SDR. I am concerned that if I delete my node and frame 2, that nothing happens to my SP attached server and the mission critical app it is running?

I would appreciate any feedback and thoughts.

TIA
