Installation and Upgrade Requirements
Observe the following requirements before installing a processor in the server blade:
•
Before installing a processor in the server, processor socket 1 must always be
populated. If the processor is missing from socket 1, the system will not power
on.
•
If processors of differing speeds are installed, each processor matches the speed
of the slowest processor.
Removing a Processor and Heatsink
For information on accessing internal server blade components, refer to “Accessing
Internal Server Blade Components” in Chapter 3, “Server Blade Setup.”
IMPORTANT: The heatsink is not reusable and must be discarded if removed from the
processor after application.
