Installing An Additional Microprocessor And Heat Sink - IBM System x3530 M4 Installation And Service Manual

10. Connect the power/configuration cable to the drive backplane and the system
11. Connect the signal cable to the drive backplane and to the adapter. Be sure to
12. Reinstall PCI riser-card assembly 2 onto the system board.
If you have other devices to install or remove, do so now. Otherwise, go to
"Completing the installation" on page 65.

Installing an additional microprocessor and heat sink

Note: If your server comes with one Intel Pentium 1400 series microprocessor, the
second microprocessor socket is not used. The server supports only one Intel
Pentium microprocessor. If you plan to install two Intel Xeon microprocessors in
the server, you must first remove the Intel Pentium microprocessor that came with
the server.
The following notes describe the type of microprocessor that the server supports
and other information that you must consider when you install a microprocessor
and heat sink:
v A microprocessor must be replaced or serviced by a trained technician.
v Be extremely careful, the pins on the socket are fragile. Any damage to the pins
v The microprocessor tool assembly comes with the microprocessor and
v Use the microprocessor tool to install or remove a microprocessor in the server.
v The server supports one Intel Pentium 1400 series microprocessor or up to two
v Do not mix four-core, six-core, and eight-core microprocessors in the same
v The microprocessor options that IBM supports are limited by the capacity and
v The first microprocessor must always be installed in microprocessor socket 1 on

8. Insert the ServeRAID adapter into the connector on the riser-card until it is
firmly seated.
Attention: Incomplete insertion might cause damage to the server or the
adapter.
9. Rotate the retention latch to the closed position, making sure the retention
latch engages the ServeRAID adapter. Then, push in the release pin to lock the
retention latch in place.

with any cable clips on the system board so that they do not get in the way or
get damaged.

between the tool and the microprocessor cover. Store the microprocessor tool in
a safe location for future use.
Failure to use the microprocessor tool may cause damage to the pins in the
socket. Any damage to the pins may require replacing the system board.
