Processor option

Use these instructions to install an AMD Opteron™ processor into a supported HP ProLiant p-Class server
blade.
NOTE: Some server blade models ship with one processor installed. Use these instructions to install an
optional second 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.
WARNING: This documentation assumes that the server blade is in a server blade
enclosure and not receiving power from a diagnostic station. If using a diagnostic station,
be sure to disconnect the server blade from the diagnostic station before installing
internal components.
CAUTION: ESD can damage electronic components. Be sure that you are properly grounded (earthed)
before beginning any installation procedure.
IMPORTANT: Processor socket 1 must always be populated. If processor socket 1 is empty, the server
blade does not power up.
To install the component:
Power down the server blade (on page 12).
1.
Remove the server blade (on page 13) from the sleeve.
2.
Install the processor.
3.
CAUTION: Be sure that the processor socket locking lever is open before installing the processor into the
socket.
CAUTION: The processor is designed to fit one way into the socket. Use the alignment guides on the
processor and socket to properly align the processor with the socket. Refer to the server blade hood label for
specific instructions.
