Processor and Heatsink Installation

Exercise extreme caution when handling and installing the proces-
sor. Always connect the power cord last and always remove it be-
!
fore adding, removing or changing any hardware components.
CPU Backplates
Four CPU backplates (BKT-0011L) have been preinstalled to the serverboard to
prevent the CPU area of the serverboard from bending and to provide a base for
attaching the heatsink retention modules.
Single, dual or quad-CPU confi gurations only are supported. For a single-CPU
confi guration, install to the CPU1 socket. For a dual-CPU confi guration, install to
the CPU1 and CPU2 sockets.
Installing Processors
1. Begin by removing the cover plate
that protects the CPU. Lift the lever on
the CPU socket until it points straight
up. With the lever raised, lift open the
silver CPU retention plate.
2. Use your thumb and your index
fi nger to hold the CPU. Locate and
align pin 1 of the CPU socket with pin
1 of the CPU. Both are marked with
a triangle.
