Processors and Processor Power Modules
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to equipment or loss of information, be sure that the
server is powered down, all cables are disconnected from the back of the server, and
the power cord is disconnected from the grounded (earthed) AC outlet before
removing the access panel.
CAUTION:
Static electricity can damage electronic components of the server.
Before beginning these procedures, be sure that you are discharged of static
electricity by briefly touching a grounded metal object.
For written instructions and illustrated procedures on installing or removing a
processor or Processor Power Module (PPM), refer to the installation documentation
that came with the option kit.
Installing a Processor with Heatsink in the Processor Cage
This server supports the installation of a second Intel Xeon processor for enhanced
performance. Processor option kits available for the server consist of an Intel Xeon
processor with heatsink and a Power Processor Module (PPM).
IMPORTANT:
Only install the specific PPM provided in the option kit with your processor.
Observe the warnings and cautions provided in the option kit documentation and in
this guide. To install the processor and heatsink assembly:
1.
Be sure that all critical data has been backed up.
2.
Be sure that the server has the most current ROM version. To update your ROM,
refer to
www.compaq.com/support/files.
3.
