Installing A Microprocessor - IBM Netfinity 7600 Installation Manual

Installing a microprocessor

Your server comes with one microprocessor installed in connector J2. This is the
startup (boot) microprocessor. A microprocessor installed in connector J3 is
microprocessor 2; a microprocessor installed in connector J4 is microprocessor 3; a
microprocessor installed in connector J5 is processor 4. If more than one
microprocessor is installed, the highest numbered microprocessor is the one the server
will start from. The lower numbered microprocessors are used as application
microprocessors.
The illustrations in this document might differ slightly from your hardware.
Attention: When you handle Electrostatic Discharge-Sensitive devices (ESD), take
precautions to avoid damage from static electricity. For details on handling these
devices, refer to the following Web site and use a search term of ESD:
