Compaq ProLiant 8000 Servers Maintenance and Service Guide
Processor Power Modules
The Processor Power Modules (which are also called VRMs) of Compaq ProLiant 8000 servers
have built-in redundancy to prevent the system from powering down if a Processor Power
Module fails. There is one redundant Processor Power Module per processor. An additional
Processor Power Module (ninth VRM), located below the eight processor slots, ships with every
server model.
To remove the redundant processor board Processor Power Module:
1.
Perform the preparation procedures. See
Preparation Procedures
earlier in this chapter.
2.
Remove the right side access panel. See
Right Side Access Panel
earlier in this chapter.
3.
Loosen the thumbscrew securing the Processor Power Module support bracket. Then pull
out the bracket
.
4.
Rotate the side ejector levers on the module outward
. Then slide the module out the
right side of the server
.
