with this CD-ROM after installing the additional processor to update the BIOS.

Tools Required

These tools are required for removal and installation of CPU modules:
If you have to remove the LPr chassis from the rack, use Torx T25 driver.
Refer to the last section of Chapter 9, "Removing the NetServer from the
Rack" for instructions.
An anti-static service kit (3M
includes a static-dissipating work surface, a chassis clip lead, and a wrist
strap.

CAUTION
Do not remove the processor from its bag until you are ready
to install it. Make sure the bag remains sealed. The CPU
chips are sensitive to humidity, so desiccant has been packed
in the bag containing the processor board. When the
processor board has been installed and the HP NetServer is
running, the chips are no longer sensitive to humidity.
