Installing a microprocessor
Complete the following steps to install a microprocessor.
Attention:
When you handle static-sensitive devices, take precautions to avoid
damage from static electricity. For details on handling these devices, see “Handling
static-sensitive devices” on page 27.
1.
Review the safety precautions listed in Statement 1 and Statement 5 in “Safety
information” on page 28.
2.
Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables and
power cords; then, remove the cover (see “Removing the side cover” on page 33
for details).
3.
Remove the support-bracket assembly and disconnect the fan cable from the
connector (SYSFA3) on the system board. See “Removing the support-bracket
assembly” on page 34 and “System board internal cable connectors” on page 24
for instructions.
4.
Install the microprocessor:
a.
Touch the static-protective package containing the new microprocessor to any
unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the microprocessor from
the package.
b.
Pull out and lift up on the microprocessor-release lever to unlock the
microprocessor connector.
c.
Arrange the microprocessor over the microprocessor connector as shown in
the following illustration. Carefully press the microprocessor into the
connector.
Attention:
Do not use excessive force when pressing the microprocessor into the
connector.
5.
Push the microprocessor-release lever down to lock the microprocessor into the
connector.
6.
Install the new heat or fan sink that comes with the microprocessor option.
a.
Peel the plastic protective strip off the bottom of the heat or the fan sink. Make
sure the square of thermal material is still on the bottom of the heat sink or fan
sink; if not, replace the it with a new heat sink or fan sink.
b.
Align and place the heat sink or the fan sink on top of the microprocessor.
c.
Locate the tab on the front of the microprocessor socket (the side facing the
PCI slots). Then, press down and latch the retainer onto the tab.
