Chapter 6

Installing an Additional Processor

56

Complete the following steps to install an additional processor:

1. Unpack the processor shipping box and check the contents against its

packing list.

2. If the HP Server is already installed and operating, shut down the NOS

according to directions in your NOS documentation.

3. Press the power switch on the HP Server's control panel when prompted by

the operating system. Normally, this completes the shutdown procedure.

WARNING

Power supplies will continue to provide standby current to the
HP Server until the power cables are disconnected.

4. Disconnect the AC power cord.

WARNING

Make sure that the rack is anchored securely, so it will not tip
when the server chassis is extended.

5. Pull the chassis out of the rack.

6. Remove the Processor/Memory Complex.

Refer to Chapter 5, "Removing the Processor/Memory Complex."

7. Ensure the processor speed of the second processor (CPU 2) is the same as

the existing processor before installing the second processor.

8. Make sure that the metal ejector pin in the LIF socket is flush in the socket.

9. Position the microprocessor inside the four posts on the Processor

Baseboard, pins toward the rear and over the LIF socket. Gently press the
processor into position.
