Installing a processor
The server is compatible with Intel
®
Xeon processors. The server automatically
detects the processors each time you turn on the server. Whenever you install
new processors, you should first install the most current version of the BIOS.
For instructions, see
“Updating the BIOS” on page 91 .
To replace a processor:
1
Install the most current BIOS version. For instructions, see “Updating the
BIOS” on page 91 .
2
Follow the instructions in “Preventing static electricity discharge” on
page 45 .
3
Follow the instructions in “Opening the server case” on page 46 .
Important You must have a processor in the Processor 1 socket, or
your server will not start.
If you are upgrading your server from one processor to two,
you may need to reconfigure your operating system so it
can recognize the additional processor. For more
information, see your operating system’s documentation.
Warning A heat sink must be installed on the processor. Installing
a processor without a heat sink could damage the
processor.
Warning Processors and heat sinks may be hot if the computer has
been running. Before replacing a processor or heat sink,
allow them to cool for several minutes.
