Microprocessor 2

Attention:

1. A startup (boot) microprocessor must always be installed in microprocessor

socket 1 on the system board.

2. To ensure correct server operation when you install an additional

microprocessor, use microprocessors that are compatible and install at least one
DIMM in a DIMM connector for microprocessor 2 (starting with the connector
farthest from the microprocessor). (See “Installing a memory module” on page
85
for more information.)

To install a microprocessor, do the following:

1. Read the safety information that begins on page vii and “Installation guidelines”

on page 37.

2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices; then, disconnect the power cords

and all external cables. Remove the left-side cover (see “Removing the
left-side cover” on page 42
for more information).

3. Remove the hot-swap power supplies from the server.

4. Open the power-supply cage (see“Opening the power-supply cage” on page

47 for more information).

5. Remove the air baffle (see “Removing the air baffle” on page 58 for more

information).

6. Locate the second microprocessor socket on the system board.

Attention:

The microprocessor retention latch is spring-loaded when the

microprocessor is in place. Releasing the latch too quickly or allowing it to
spring upward can damage the microprocessor and surrounding components.

7. Release the microprocessor retention latch by pressing down on the end,

moving it to the side, and slowly releasing it to the fully open (up) position.

8. Open the microprocessor bracket frame by lifting up the tab on the top edge.

Attention:

a. Do not touch the microprocessor contacts; handle the microprocessor by

the edges only. Contaminants on the microprocessor contacts, such as oil
from your skin, can cause connection failures between the contacts and
the socket.

b. Handle the microprocessor carefully. Dropping the microprocessor during

installation or removal can damage the contacts.

c. Do not use excessive force when you press the microprocessor into the

socket.
