Installing a Dual-Core Processor
To install a dual-core processor, follow these steps:
NOTE:
Prior to installing a dual-core processor into the server, read the following instructions
carefully and see the figures in this chapter for a complete understanding of this process.
1.
Power off the server and disconnect the power cables. See
“Powering Off the Server”
(page 90)
.
2.
If rack installed, slide the server out from the rack until it stops. See
“Extending the Server from
the Rack” (page 176)
.
3.
Remove the memory carrier assembly cover. See
“Removing the Memory Carrier Assembly
Cover” (page 179)
.
NOTE:
You do not need to fully remove the top cover to service this component; however,
the top cover release lever must be open. You must remove the memory carrier because it
attaches directly to the processor board.
