Installing a processor

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system components to cool before touching them.

CAUTION: To avoid damage to the system board:

• Do not touch the processor socket contacts.

• Always install the processor socket cover after

removing the processor from the socket.

• Do not tilt or slide the processor when lowering the processor into the socket.

CAUTION: To avoid damage to the processor:

• Handle the processor only by the edges.

• Do not touch the bottom of the processor, especially

the contact area.

CAUTION: To prevent possible server malfunction and damage to the equipment, multiprocessor configurations must contain processors with the same part number.

CAUTION: To prevent possible server blade overheating, always populate processor socket 2 with a processor and a heatsink or a processor socket cover and a heatsink blank.

CAUTION: The heatsink thermal interface media is not reusable and must be replaced if the heatsink is removed from the processor after it has been installed.

IMPORTANT: When installing the heatsink, align the guide pins on the processor retention bracket with the alignment holes in the heatsink.

IMPORTANT: Processor socket 1 must always be populated. If processor socket 1 is empty, the server blade does not power up.

NOTE: Do not discard the processor protective cover.

Always install the processor protective cover if the processor is removed from the socket.

IMPORTANT: If upgrading processor speed or adding additional processors, update the system ROM before installing the processor.

2. Remove the server blade.

3. Remove the server B assembly:

a. Place the server blade on a flat, level work surface with the

bezel facing away from you.

b. Extend the server B serial label pull tab.

CAUTION: The jackscrews control the unseating and

seating of critical system connectors. Failure to use the jackscrews to remove and install the server B assembly can cause the system boards to fail.

c. Turn the jackscrew on the right approximately six turns

counterclockwise.

d. Turn the jackscrew on the left counterclockwise until the

threads are fully disengaged.

e. Turn jackscrew on the right counterclockwise until the

threads are fully disengaged.

CAUTION: To prevent damage to the server blade, do not apply pressure to the enclosure connector.

f. Lift server B assembly from server A assembly, and then

place it on the work surface with the system board facing up.

5. Open the processor retaining latch and the processor socket retaining bracket.

6. Remove the processor socket protective cover.

4. Remove the heatsink blank. Retain the heatsink blank for future

use.

IMPORTANT: Be sure the processor remains inside the processor installation tool.
