6 Installing an Additional Processor

Introduction

The HP Netserver LP 1000r ships with at least one processor on the system board
(primary processor socket – CPU 1) and the voltage regulator modules (VRMs)
are embedded in the system board. Both processor sockets (primary and
secondary) are located on the system board.

Tools Required

The following tools are required to access and install or remove the processors:

• ¼-inch flat blade screwdriver
• An anti-static service kit (3M 8501/8502/8503 or equivalent). This kit

includes a static-dissipating work surface, a chassis clip lead, and a wrist
strap.

Processor Configuration Guidelines

The HP Netserver LP 1000r supports a variety of processor speeds with an FSB
(front side bus) speed of 133 MHz. The Netserver supports processor speeds at
1.13 and 1.26 GHz.

NOTE

Some processor speeds listed for this HP Netserver may not be
supported. For the latest support information, visit the HP web
site:

CAUTION

Do not open the new processor's protective bag or remove the
processor from the bag until you are ready to install it.

Before you remove a processor from the anti-static bag, touch
a grounded, unpainted metal surface on the HP Netserver to
discharge static electricity.

• Both processors must be the same processor type and have the same product

number, which insures the same clock speed, cache size, and FSB speed.

• The processors must operate at the designated speed stated by the product

type on the processor.
