Processor and Heat Sink Installation

CPU Backplates

Four CPU backplates (BKT-0011L) have been preinstalled to the serverboard to
prevent the CPU area of the serverboard from bending and to provide a base for
attaching the heat sink retention modules.
Single, dual or quad-CPU confi gurations only are supported. For a single-CPU
confi guration, install to the CPU1 socket. For a dual-CPU confi guration, install to
the CPU1 and CPU2 sockets.
Installing Processors
1. Begin by removing the cover plate that
protects the CPU. Lift the lever on the
CPU socket until it points straight up.
With the lever raised, lift open the silver
CPU retention plate.
