9. Install the processor:
a. Touch the static-protective package containing the new processor to any
unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the processor from the
package.
b. Rotate the processor latches
3
to the open position.
Attention: Before you press the processor into the connector, make sure
that the processor has the same orientation as the original A1 processor.
c. Insert the processor
6
into the guides and gently press the processor into
the connector. When the processor is correctly inserted, all the processor
heat sinks in both processor cages face the same direction, toward
connector A1.
d. Rotate the processor latches
3
until they close and lock in place.
10. If you plan to install more than one processor, repeat step 7 on page 29 and
step 9 in this section.
11. Install terminator cards
5
in the connectors that do not contain processors.
The arrows on the terminators must face toward the large connector on the
processor housing assembly and away from the fan guard.
12. Reinstall the processor-cage cover by inserting the cover tabs into the slots on
the top of the processor cage.
13. Turn the four plastic fasteners on the processor-cage cover until they are in the
locked position (one quarter-turn). You may use a flat-blade screwdriver or a
coin.
Attention: Do not lift the processor housing assembly by the latches.
14. Reinstall the processor housing assembly in the server:
Attention: To avoid injury, do not place your fingers immediately behind
the latches at the top of the processor housing assembly.
a. With the processor housing assembly positioned so that the processors are
pointing downward and the latches
1
are closed, align the processor
housing assembly with the guides
2
on the inside walls of the server.
b. Grasp the bottom sides of the processor housing assembly. Slide the
processor housing assembly partially into the server; then, open the latches
fully.
