Remove a CPU Cover Plate (FRU)

When servicing the components in this section, unplug the AC power cords and use ESD
protection.
Cover plates are plastic inserts that attach to the CPU load plate and protect the pins of an
unoccupied CPU socket. Cover plates are used in the unoccupied sockets of a two-CPU server
and on replacement motherboards. When replacing a motherboard, remove the covers and
install them on the failed board.
