Intel® Server Compute Blade SBX44: Installation and User’s Guide
b.
Insert the DIMM by pressing the DIMM along the guides into the connector. Be sure that
the retaining clips snap into the closed positions.
Important: If there is a gap between the DIMM and the retaining clips, the DIMM has not
been properly installed. In this case, open the retaining clips and remove the DIMM; then,
reinsert the DIMM.
8.
If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to “Completing the
installation” on page 41.
Installing a microprocessor
Your blade server supports four microprocessors. With two or four 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.
To use SMP, obtain an SMP-capable operating system.
Attention: To ensure proper server operation when you install a microprocessor, use
microprocessors that have the same cache size and type, and the same clock speed. Internal and
external clock frequencies must be identical.
Notes:
1. Thoroughly review the documentation that comes with the microprocessor, so that you can
determine whether you need to update the blade server BIOS code. Contact your Intel Support
Representative for more information.
2. The microprocessor sockets in this server contain built-in termination for the microprocessor
bus; therefore, terminator cards are not required for empty microprocessor sockets. However, for
proper air flow, an empty microprocessor socket must contain a microprocessor heat sink filler.
3. The microprocessor speeds are automatically set for this server; therefore, you do not need to set
any microprocessor frequency-selection jumpers or switches.
Complete the following steps to install a microprocessor:
1.
Review the information in “General Safety” and “Electrical Safety” beginning on page vi and
“Installation guidelines” on page 19.
2.
Shut down the operating system, turn off the blade server, and remove the blade server from the
system chassis. See “Removing the blade server from the system chassis” on page 19 for
instructions.
3.
Carefully lay the blade server on a flat, non-conductive surface.
4.
Open the blade server cover (see “Opening the blade server cover” on page 20 for instructions).
