Upgrading Versus Adding On
If your Integrity server already contains one, or more, of the processors listed in
, then
follow the processor removal and replacement procedures (see
Dual-Core Processor” (page 217)
) to add another processor. Updating the system firmware and
OS is unnecessary when adding another processor.
If your Integrity server does not currently contain one, or more, of the processors listed in
then a server upgrade is being performed, and system firmware and OS updates may be
necessary. After any necessary system firmware and OS updates are performed, follow the
processor removal and replacement procedures (see
“Removing and Replacing a Dual-Core
).
Firmware
Before upgrading the processor, ensure the server is at the required system firmware level.
Check the system firmware version by executing the
info fw
command at the EFI Shell prompt.
