Review the information in "Before you begin" on page 45.
Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables and
power cords; then remove the cover (see "Removing the cover and bezel" on page
47).
Remove the air baffle by grasping it at the sides and lifting it from the server.
Remove the terminator card from the microprocessor connector. Store the
terminator card in a safe place in the static-protective package that your new
microprocessor is shipped in; you will need to install it again, if you ever remove
the microprocessor.
Install the microprocessor:

Touch the static-protective package containing the new microprocessor to any
unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the microprocessor from
the package.
b. Center the microprocessor over the microprocessor connector and carefully
press the microprocessor into the connector.
Note: To remove a microprocessor, pull upward on the microprocessor handle.
Install the VRM included in the microprocessor kit.
Attention: When installing or replacing a VRM, use only a VRM specified for
use with the Netfinity 4500R server. Use of other VRMs might cause
your server to overheat.
a.
Center the VRM over the VRM connector. Make sure that the VRM is oriented
and aligned correctly.
b. Press the VRM into the connector.
Note: If you remove the microprocessor later, remember to install the terminator
card in the appropriate microprocessor connector and to remove the VRM.
Install the air baffle. Make sure the sides of the air baffle fit inside the brackets on
the server.
If you have other options to install or remove, do so now; otherwise, go to
"Installing the server cover and bezel" on page 60.
Your server comes with one power supply. You can install an additional power
