CAUTION: To help avoid damage to the processor and system board, do not install the processor without
using the processor installation tool.
CAUTION: To prevent possible server malfunction, do not mix processors of different speeds or cache
sizes. Refer to the label on the processor heatsink for a description of the processor.
CAUTION: Removal of the processor or heatsink renders the thermal layer between the processor and
heatsink useless. A new heatsink must be ordered and installed before reinstalling the processor.
IMPORTANT: Processor socket 1 must be populated at all times or the server does not function.
IMPORTANT: If upgrading processor speed, update the system ROM before installing the processor.
1. Power down the server (on page 18 ).
2. Extend the server from the rack (on page 19 ).
3. Remove the access panel (on page 20 ).
4. Remove the air baffle (" Remove and install the air baffle " on page 20 ).
CAUTION: The pins on the processor socket are very fragile. Any damage to them may require replacing
the system board.
5. Remove the processor socket protective cover. Retain the cover for future use.
CAUTION: Failure to completely open the processor locking lever prevents the processor from seating
during installation, leading to hardware damage.
