do the reverse procedure of steps 12 to 8. Remove the heat sink by using a flat-tip screwdriver for
the fixing metal fitting.

„
Do not remove any CPU unless it is failed.
„
After the operation, heat may make the cool seat at the bottom of
the heat sink adhere to the CPU. To remove the heat sink from the
CPU, first turn the heat sink to the left and right lightly to make sure
that the heat sink can be apart from the CPU. Removing the heat
sink with it adhering to the CPU may cause the CPU and/or socket
to be defected.
Do the following procedure if a CPU is removed (or replaced).
1.
Update the configuration data according to Steps 11 to 17 described in the installation
procedure.
You do not need to update the configuration data when you replaced the CPU.
While updating is in progress, the STATUS lamp goes on amber, however, it is not the
problem. When you complete updating and reboot the system, the amber STATUS lamp
will go off. If the amber STATUS lamp still goes on, some server failure is assumed.
2.
After removing or reinstalling the processor, run the BIOS SETUP utility to observe the
processor status (see Chapter 4 for detail).
