Removing a PPM
The server PPMs provide the proper power to each processor. Each PPM must be
installed in the correct slot for the processor.
IMPORTANT: Processor socket 1 and PPM slot 1 must be
populated at all times or the server will not function properly.
IMPORTANT: Always install a PPM when you install a processor.
The system fails to boot if the PPM is missing.
To remove a PPM:
1.
Power down the server ("Powering down the server" on page
18
).
2.
Remove the processor module ("Removing the processor module" on page
