Hardware options installation
Introduction
If more than one option is being installed, read the installation instructions for all the hardware options
and identify similar steps to streamline the installation process.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to electrical components, properly ground the server before
beginning any installation procedure. Improper grounding can cause electrostatic discharge.
Review "Electrostatic Discharge (on page
86
)" before installing hardware options into the server.
Processor options
The server supports operation in a two- or four-processor configuration. The server supports boot functions
through the processor installed in processor socket 2.
Server PPMs provide the proper power to each processor. Each PPM must be installed in the slot adjacent
to its processor.
Removing the processor memory module
The processors and memory are stored in a module at the front of the server. Access to the processor
memory module is provided through the front panel, eliminating the need to extend the server from the
rack to install new or replace existing processors or upgrade the memory.
To remove the processor memory module:
1.
Power down the server (on page
27
).
2.
Release the latches on the lever.
