Processor option 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 possible node malfunction and damage to the equipment, multiprocessor configurations must contain processors with the same part number. CAUTION: To avoid damage to the processor and system board, only authorized personnel should attempt to replace or install the processor in this node. CAUTION: The heatsink thermal interface media is not reusable and must be replaced if the heatsink is removed from the processor after it has been installed. IMPORTANT: Processor socket 1 must be populated at all times or the node does not function. In a multiprocessor configuration, to optimize system performance, HP recommends balancing the total capacity of the DIMMs across the processors. 1. Update the system ROM. Locate and download the latest ROM version from the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support). Follow the instructions on the website to update the system ROM. 2. Power down the node (on page 19). 3. Remove the node from the chassis ("Remove a node from the chassis" on page 19). 4. Remove the access panel (on page 20). 5. Remove the processor air baffle (on page 21).

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.
Processor option
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 possible node malfunction and damage to the equipment, multiprocessor
configurations must contain processors with the same part number.
CAUTION:
To avoid damage to the processor and system board, only authorized personnel
should attempt to replace or install the processor in this node.
CAUTION:
The heatsink thermal interface media is not reusable and must be replaced if the
heatsink is removed from the processor after it has been installed.
IMPORTANT:
Processor socket 1 must be populated at all times or the node does not function.
In a multiprocessor configuration, to optimize system performance, HP recommends balancing the total
capacity of the DIMMs across the processors.
1.
Update the system ROM.
Locate and download the latest ROM version from the HP website (
).
Follow the instructions on the website to update the system ROM.
2.
Power down the node (on page
19
).
3.
Remove the node from the chassis ("

19
).
4.
Remove the access panel (on page
20
).
5.
Remove the processor air baffle (on page
21
).
