Installation
2.
Installing DRMs (Dual Retention Modules):
Regardless of how many processors you will be using, both DRMs must
be installed. Position the DRMs as indicated in Figure 2-1, using the pegs
on their bases to help align the mounting holes to those on the mother-
board. Then insert the DRM mounting screws through the motherboard
and into the motherboard tray, where they should be secured to the
standoffs.
3.
Installing handlebar caps on the Xeon processors:
When attaching the caps (top cross pieces) to function as handlebars for
the Xeon processors, make sure the two mounting screw holes on the
top of each cap face inward. You should test the configuration of the
units before mounting the caps.
4.
Securing the processors:
Beginning with the CPU1 slot, slide the processor(s) into the DRMs and let
it rest in the Slot 2 socket. Then insert the four DRM screws to the base
of each DRM and secure the units by screwing them in firmly.
5.
Empty processor slots:
Terminator cards (Supermicro p/n TMR-008) must be installed in the
processor slot(s) left empty in 1, 2 and 3-way configurations.
