As the system boots, it detects the presence of the new processor and automatically
changes the system configuration information in the System Setup program.

NOTE: After you access the inside of the system, the chassis intrusion detector will cause

an alert message to be displayed at the next system startup. This message is stored in the
system’s nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM). To clear this message log, see your
systems management software documentation.

18

Enter the System Setup program and ensure that the microprocessor categories match
the new system configuration. For instructions about using the System Setup
program, see your User’s Guide.

19

Run the system diagnostics to verify that the new microprocessor is operating
correctly. See your Installation and Troubleshooting Guide for information about
running the diagnostics and troubleshooting any problems that may occur.
