Installing
an
additional
microprocessor
The
blade
server
comes
with
one
or
two
microprocessors
installed
on
the
system
board.
The
blade
server
supports
two
microprocessors.
With
two
microprocessors,
your
blade
server
can
operate
as
a
symmetric
multiprocessing
(SMP)
server.
With
SMP,
certain
operating
systems
and
application
programs
can
distribute
the
processing
load
between
the
microprocessors.
If
your
blade
server
comes
with
one
microprocessor,
you
can
install
a
second
microprocessor.
To
use
SMP,
obtain
an
SMP-capable
operating
system.

a
list
of
supported
operating
systems
and
other
options,

Attention:
To
ensure
proper
blade
server
operation
when
you
install
a
second
microprocessor,
observe
the
following
precautions:
v
Always
install
microprocessors
that
have
the
same
cache
size
and
type,
the
same
clock
speed,
and
identical
internal
and
external
clock
frequencies
(including
system
bus
speed).
v
Make
sure
that
the
microprocessor
with
the
lowest
feature
set
is
the
startup
(bootstrap)
microprocessor,
installed
in
the
microprocessor
1
socket
(U66).
Notes:
1.
For
a
list
of
microprocessors
that
are
supported
by
your
blade
server,
go
to
the
ServerProven
list
at
http://www.ibm.com/pc/us/compat/.
2.
Thoroughly
review
the
documentation
that
comes
with
the
microprocessor,
so
that
you
can
determine
whether
you
have
to
update
the
blade
server
BIOS
code.
The
latest
level
of
BIOS
code
for
your
blade
server
is
available
from
the
World
Wide
Web.
See
Appendix
A,
“Getting
help
and
technical
assistance,”
on
page
69
for
the
World
Wide
Web
addresses.

The
microprocessor
sockets
in
this
server
contain
built-in
termination
for
the
microprocessor
bus;
therefore,
no
terminator
card
is
required
if
a
second
microprocessor
is
not
installed
in
microprocessor
socket
2.
However,
for
proper
airflow,
this
socket
must
contain
a
microprocessor
heat-sink
filler,
sometimes
called
a
microprocessor
baffle.
4.
The
microprocessor
speeds
are
automatically
set
for
this
server;
therefore,
you
do
not
have
to
set
any
microprocessor
frequency-selection
jumpers
or
switches.
The
following
illustration
shows
how
to
install
the
second
microprocessor
on
the
system
board
for
the
blade
server.
