Installing an Additional Processor

51

CAUTION

Take the following precautions when installing processors:

• Leave the processor in the anti-static bag until you are

ready to install it.

• Wear an anti-static wrist strap and use a static-dissipating

work surface or grounding mat connected to the chassis
when handling components.

• Before removing a processor from the anti-static bag,

touch a grounded, unpainted metal surface to discharge
static electricity.

1. Unpack the processor shipping box and check the contents against the packing

list.

CAUTION

Do not unseal the anti-static bag, or remove the processor until

you are ready to install it.

2. Log off all users, backup files, and shut down the NOS according to the

instructions in your NOS documentation.

3. Press the power switch on the HP Netserver control panel when prompted by

the operating system.

Normally, this completes the shutdown procedure.

WARNING

Power supplies continue to provide standby current to the
Netserver until the power cables are disconnected.

4. Disconnect the AC power cord.

5. Gain access to the system board:

a. Pull out the anti-tip foot at the bottom of the rack. Then slowly slide the

HP Netserver chassis out from the rack as far as it can be extended.

b. Remove the cover. Refer to Chapter 2, "Opening and Closing the HP

Netserver."

c. Remove rear blower. Refer to Chapter 1, “Opening and Closing the HP

Netserver.”

d. Remove the air flow guide. Refer to Chapter 2, "Opening and Closing the
