Remove the thermal interface protective cover from the heatsink. Install the heatsink: Position the heatsink on the processor backplate. Tighten one pair of diagonally opposite screws halfway, and then tighten the other pair of screws. Finish the installation by completely tightening the screws in the same sequence. Connect the processor fan cable.
Processor WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the internal system components to cool before touching them. CAUTION: To avoid damage to the processor and system board, only authorized personnel should attempt to replace or install the processor in this server. CAUTION: To prevent possible server malfunction and damage to the equipment, multiprocessor configurations must contain processors with the same part number.
Page 43
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the processor, do not touch the bottom of the processor, especially the contact area. CAUTION: The pins on the processor socket are very fragile. Any damage to them may require replacing the system board. Open the processor locking lever, and then open the processor retaining bracket. Hold the processor by the edges, and then lift it out of the socket.
Page 44
Install the processor. Use the notches on both sides of the processor to properly align it into the socket. CAUTION: Be sure to close the processor socket retaining bracket before closing the processor locking lever. The lever should close without resistance. Forcing the lever closed can damage the processor and socket, requiring system board replacement.
Apply all the grease to the top of the processor in the following pattern to ensure even distribution. Install the heatsink: Position the heatsink on the processor backplate. Tighten one pair of diagonally opposite screws halfway, and then tighten the other pair of screws. Finish the installation by completely tightening the screws in the same sequence.

System battery If the server no longer automatically displays the correct date and time, then replace the battery that provides power to the real-time clock. Under normal use, battery life is 5 to 10 years. WARNING: The computer contains an internal lithium manganese dioxide, a vanadium pentoxide, or an alkaline battery pack.
Page 53
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to the equipment: • Do not disable the power cord grounding plug. The grounding plug is an important safety feature. • Plug the power cord into a grounded (earthed) electrical outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
HP Trusted Platform Module The TPM is not a customer-removable part. CAUTION: Any attempt to remove an installed TPM from the system board breaks or disfigures the TPM security rivet. Upon locating a broken or disfigured rivet on an installed TPM, administrators should consider the system compromised and take appropriate measures to ensure the integrity of the system data.
