1.2 Server Board Use Disclaimer
Intel Corporation server boards support add-in peripherals and contain a number of high-density
VLSI (Very-large-scale integration) and power delivery components that need adequate airflow
to cool. Intel ensures through its own chassis development and testing that when Intel® server
building blocks are used together, the fully integrated system will meet the intended thermal
requirements of these components. It is the responsibility of the system integrator who chooses
not to use Intel developed server building blocks to consult vendor datasheets and operating
parameters to determine the amount of airflow required for their specific application and

Revision 1.0 15
Intel order number G42278-002
Functional Architecture Overview Intel® Server Board S2600CO Family TPS
3.1 Processor Support
The server board includes two Socket-R (LGA2011) processor sockets and can support one or
two of the following processors:
Intel
®
Xeon® processor E5-2600 product family, with a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of
up to 135W
Intel
®
Xeon® processor E5-2600 product family, with a Thermal Design Power (TDP) of
up to 150W with Intel® Server Board S2600COE with possible configuration limits.
Note: Previous generation Intel® Xeon® processors are not supported on the Intel server boards
described in this document.
Visit the Intel web site for a complete updated list of supported processors.
3.1.1 Processor Socket Assembly
Each processor socket of the server board is pre-assembled with an Independent Latching
Mechanism (ILM) and Back Plate which allow for secure placement of the processor and
processor heat to the server board.
The illustration below identifies each sub-assembly component.
Figure 11. Processor Socket Assembly
3.1.2 Processor Population Rules
Note: Although the server board does support dual-processor configurations consisting of
different processors that meet the defined criteria below, Intel® does not perform validation
16 Revision 1.0
Intel order number G42278-002
Intel® Server Board S2600CO Family TPS Functional Architecture Overview
testing of this configuration. For optimal system performance in dual-processor configurations,
Intel® recommends that identical processors be installed.
When using a single processor configuration, the processor must be installed into the processor
socket labeled “CPU_1”.
When two processors are installed, the following population rules apply:
Both processors must be of the same processor family.
Both processors must have the same number of cores.
Both processors must have the same cache sizes for all levels of processor cache
memory.
Processors with different core frequencies can be mixed in a system, given the prior
rules are met. If this condition is detected, all processor core frequencies are set to the
lowest common denominator (highest common speed) and an error is reported.
Processors which have different Intel QuickPath (QPI) Link Frequencies may operate
together if they are otherwise compatible and if a common link frequency can be
selected. The common link frequency would be the highest link frequency that all
installed processor can achieve.
Processor stepping within a common processor family can be mixed as long as it is
listed in the processor specification updates published by Intel Corporation.
3.1.3 Processor Initializion Error Summary
The following table describes mixed processor conditions and recommended actions for all
Intel® server boards and Intel® server systems designed around the Intel® Xeon® processor E52600 product family and Intel® C600 chipset product family architecture. The errors fall into one
of the following categories:
Fatal: If the system can boot, it pauses at a blank screen with the text “Unrecoverable
fatal error found. System will not boot until the error is resolved” and “Press <F2>
to enter setup”, regardless of whether the “Post Error Pause” setup option is enabled or
disabled.
When the operator presses the <F2> key on the keyboard and enter BIOS setup, the
error message is displayed on the Error Manager screen, and an error is logged to the
System Event Log (SEL) with the POST Error Code.
The system cannot boot unless the error is resolved. The user needs to replace the
faulty part and restart the system.
For Fatal Errors during processor initialization, the System Status LED will be set to a
steady Amber color, indicating an unrecoverable system failure condition
Major: If the “Post Error Pause” setup option is enabled, the system goes directly to the
Error Manager screen to display the error and log the error code to SEL. Operator
intervention is required to continue booting the system.
Otherwise, if “POST Error Pause” is disabled, the system continues to boot and no
prompt is given for the error, although the error code is logged to the Error Manager and
in a SEL message.

The BIOS detects the processor frequency difference, and responds as
follows:
Adjusts all processor frequencies to the highest common frequency.
No error is generated – this is not an error condition.
Continues to boot the system successfully.
If the frequencies for all processors cannot be adjusted to be the same,
then this is an error, and the BIOS responds as follows:
Logs the POST Error Code into the SEL.
Alerts the BMC to set the System Status LED to steady Amber.
Does not disable the processor.
Displays “0197: Processor speeds unable to synchronize” message in
the Error Manager.
Takes Fatal Error action (see above) and will not boot until the fault
condition is remedied.
Minor: The message is displayed on the screen or on the Error Manager screen, and
the POST Error Code is logged to the SEL. The system continues booting in a degraded
state. The user may want to replace the erroneous unit. The POST Error Pause option
setting in the BIOS setup does not have any effect on this error.
