Replacing CPUs and Heatsinks
This topic describes the configuration rules and procedure for replacing CPUs and heatsinks.
CPU Configuration Rules
This compute node has two CPU sockets on the motherboard. Each CPU supports 16 DIMM channels (16
DIMM slots). See
Memory Population Guidelines, on page 47
• The compute node can operate with one or two identical CPUs installed.
• The minimum configuration is at least CPU 1 installed. Install CPUs 1 first, then CPU2.
The following restrictions apply when using a single-CPU configuration:
• Any unused CPU socket must have the protective dust cover from the factory installed.
• The maximum number of DIMMs is 16. Only CPU1 channels A1 through H1 are used.
Tools Required for CPU Replacement
You need the following tools and equipment for this procedure:
• T-30 Torx driver—Supplied with replacement CPU.
