Notes
1.
If you have not already done so, go to
http://www.ibm.com/support/ on the World Wide
Web and download the appropriate flash update
program.
Review the applicable README files,
and use this information to create a
Flash Utility
Diskette
. Perform the POST/BIOS (flash) update
procedure.
2.
The microprocessor in the server comes with an
attached heat sink.
The microprocessor plugs
into the microprocessor socket on the system
board and is stabilized with a plastic bracket
attached to the system board.
3.
If you replace the microprocessor with one that
has a different speed, you must change the
switch settings on the system board.
To locate
the switches, see “System board connectors” on
page
143. For information about the appropriate
switch settings, see Table
11 on page
147, or
see the label inside the server cover.
Attention:
If you select a setting for the frequency switch
that is greater than the actual frequency of the
microprocessor, you might damage the
microprocessor.
To install a microprocessor:
1.
If you have not done so, remove the server cover.
See “Option installation” on page
125.
2.
If you are installing an additional microprocessor,
remove the terminator card from the secondary
microprocessor connector.
Otherwise, go to step 3.
a.
Spread apart the posts of the secondary
microprocessor connector bracket until the top of
the terminator card is past the restraining
latches.
b.
Lift the terminator card out of the connector.
Note
When you install a second microprocessor, it
becomes the startup (boot) microprocessor.
3.
Carefully remove the microprocessor from the
static-protective package, if any.
