Installing and replacing a microprocessor and power module
The following notes describe the type of microprocessor that your server supports
and other information that you must consider when installing and replacing a
microprocessor:
v Your server supports up to four Intel
v Update the server system abstraction layer/extensible firmware interface
v You will need the following tools:
a. Open the retaining clip on each end of the DIMM connector.
b. Touch the static-protective package containing the DIMM to any unpainted
metal surface on the server. Then, remove the DIMM from the package.
Attention:
To avoid breaking the retaining clips or damaging the DIMM
connectors, open and close the clips gently.
c. Turn the DIMM so that the DIMM keys align correctly with the slot.
d. Insert the DIMM into the connector by aligning the edges of the DIMM with
the slots at the ends of the DIMM connector. Firmly press the DIMM straight
down into the connector by applying pressure on both ends of the DIMM
simultaneously. The retaining clips snap into the locked position when the
DIMM is firmly seated in the connector. If there is a gap between the DIMM
and the retaining clips, the DIMM has not been correctly inserted; open the
retaining clips, remove the DIMM, and then reinsert it.
