•
Use SMCIPMItool to use a Command Line Interface to the onboard BMC chip; requires
Operator or Admin privileges.
2.4 Processor and Heatsink Installation
The processor (CPU) and processor carrier should be assembled together first to form
the processor carrier assembly. This will be attached to the heatsink to form the processor
heatsink module (PHM) before being installed onto the CPU socket.
Notes:
•
Use ESD protection.
•
Unplug the AC power cord from all power supplies.
•
Check that the plastic protective cover is on the CPU socket and that none of the socket
pins are bent. If they are, contact your retailer.
•
When handling the processor, avoid touching or placing direct pressure on the land grid
array (gold contacts).
•
Improper installation or socket misalignment can cause serious damage to the processor
or the socket and may require manufacturer repairs.
•
Thermal grease is pre-applied on new heatsinks. No additional thermal grease is needed.
•
Refer to the
