If
one
microprocessor
is
installed:
–
The
microprocessor
is
installed
in
microprocessor
socket
1
(U82).
–
The
microprocessor
supports
both
the
startup
and
application
processes.
v
If
you
install
a
second
microprocessor
in
the
server:
–
The
server
operates
as
a
symmetric
multiprocessing
(SMP)
server.
With
an
SMP,
operating
system
application
programs
can
distribute
the
processing
load
between
the
microprocessors.
This
enhances
performance
for
database
and
point-of-sale
applications,
integrated
manufacturing
solutions,
and
other
applications.
–
Microprocessor
1
is
installed
in
microprocessor
socket
1
(U82);
microprocessor
2
is
installed
in
socket
2
(U121).
Notes:
1.
Read
the
documentation
that
comes
with
the
microprocessor
to
determine
if
you
need
to
update
the
basic
input/output
system
(BIOS)
code.
The
most
current
level
of
BIOS
code
for
the
server
is
available
through
the
World
Wide
Web
at
http://www.ibm.com/pc/support/.
2.
To
use
SMP,
obtain
an
SMP-capable
operating
system
(optional).
For
a
list
of
supported
operating
systems,
go
to
http://www.ibm.com/pc/us/compat/
on
the
World
Wide
Web.
Attention:
To
avoid
damage
and
to
ensure
proper
server
operation,
review
the
following
information
before
you
install
a
microprocessor:
v
Ensure
that
the
microprocessors
are
the
same
type,
have
the
same
cache
size,
and
have
the
same
clock
speed.
v
Ensure
that
the
microprocessor
internal
and
external
clock
frequencies
are
identical.
v
See
the
ServerProven
list
at
http://www.ibm.com/pc/compat/
for
a
list
of
microprocessors
supported
by
the
server.
A
new
microprocessor
comes
in
a
kit
with
a
VRM
and
a
heat
sink.

the
following
steps
