Processor option
Use these instructions to install an AMD Opteron™ processor into a supported
HP ProLiant p-Class server blade.
NOTE: Some server blade models ship with one processor installed.
Use these instructions to install an optional second processor.
WARNING: This documentation assumes that the server
blade is in a server blade enclosure and not receiving power from
a diagnostic station. If using a diagnostic station, be sure to
disconnect the server blade from the diagnostic station before
installing internal components.
CAUTION: ESD can damage electronic components. Be sure
that you are properly grounded (earthed) before beginning any
installation procedure.
Processor installation guidelines
Observe the following processor installation guidelines:
•
Always populate processor socket 1 with a processor. If processor socket 1 is
empty, the server blade does not boot.
