Processor, Lifting the processor retaining card

Page 137 highlights

Processor The VLS300nodes each include two processors. With two processors installed, the node supports boot functions through the processor installed in processor socket 1. However, if processor 1 fails, the system automatically boots from processor 2 and provides a processor failure message. The node uses embedded PPMs as DC-to-DC converters to provide the proper power to each processor. CAUTION: To prevent thermal instability and damage to the node, do not separate the processor from the heatsink. The processor, heatsink, and retaining clip make up a single assembly. CAUTION: To prevent possible node malfunction and damage to the equipment, replace the processors with the same make and type of processor. To remove a processor: 1. Power off the node. See Powering off the system. 2. Extend the node from the rack. See Extending the node from the rack. 3. Remove the access panel. See Removing the VLS node access panel. 4. Rotate the processor retaining card upward (Figure 81). Back Figure 81 Lifting the processor retaining card 5. Release the processor retaining clips on either side of the processor assembly (1) (Figure 82). 6. Unlock the processor from the connector by lifting and swinging the locking lever over about 180 degrees (2). HP StorageWorks 137

Processor
The VLS300nodes each include two processors. With two processors installed, the node supports boot
functions through the processor installed in processor socket 1. However, if processor 1 fails, the system
automatically boots from processor 2 and provides a processor failure message.
The node uses embedded PPMs as DC-to-DC converters to provide the proper power to each processor.
CAUTION:
To prevent thermal instability and damage to the node, do not separate the processor from the heatsink.
The processor, heatsink, and retaining clip make up a single assembly.
CAUTION:
To prevent possible node malfunction and damage to the equipment, replace the processors with the
same make and type of processor.
To remove a processor:
1.
Power off the node. See
Powering off the system
.
2.
Extend the node from the rack. See
Extending the node from the rack
.
3.
Remove the access panel. See
Removing the VLS node access panel
.
4.
Rotate the processor retaining card upward (
Figure 81
).

6.
Unlock the processor from the connector by lifting and swinging the locking lever over about 180
degrees (2).
