866-MHz/933-MHz Processor Upgrade Instructions

Upgrading HP NetServer LH 3000/3000r and LC 2000/2000r to 866-MHz or 933-MHz Processors

For upgrades to 866-MHz or faster processor modules, the order of procedures differs from the order listed in the

HP NetServer LH 3000/3000r and LC 2000/2000r Processor Upgrade Guide

supplied with the processor upgrade kit.

To install 866-MHz or 933-MHz processor modules, follow the instructions on this sheet in the order listed below.

Updating System BIOS

Before

you upgrade to 866-MHz or 933-MHz processor modules in HP NetServer LH 3000/3000r or LC 2000/2000r,

you

must

update the system BIOS to support these processor modules. If you are adding an additional 866-MHz or

933-MHz processor module, you may need to update the system BIOS

before

you install the module. The

HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM

shipped with the 866-MHz or 933-MHz processor upgrade kit contains the

required BIOS version.

To update the system BIOS or to determine whether it needs updating, follow the instructions in Chapter 3 of the

HP NetServer LH 3000/3000r and LC 2000/2000r Processor Upgrade Guide

before

installing 866-MHz or 933-MHz

processor modules.

Installing Processor Modules

HP NetServer LH 3000/3000r

and LC 2000/2000r Processor Upgrade Guide

, but set all configuration switches (including processor speed switches)

to

Installing or Reconfiguring the NOS

If you are performing the initial installation of the HP NetServer, configure the network operating system (NOS) as

instructed in the installation guide for your HP NetServer.

If you added an additional processor to an installed system, you may need to reconfigure your NOS before you can use

the additional processor. To determine whether you must reconfigure your NOS, refer to your NOS documentation, the

Readme file on the

HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM

, and the

Network Operating System Installation Instructions

available in the Configuration Advisor on the

HP NetServer Navigator CD-ROM

.
