Caution – Failure to clean the heatsink prior to removing the processor could result
in the accidental contamination of the processor socket or other components. Also, be
careful not to get the grease on your fingers as this could result in contamination of
components.
6. Disengage the processor ILM assembly hinge lever on the right side of the
processor socket (viewing the server from the front) by pushing down on the
lever and moving it to the side away from the processor, and then rotating the
lever upward [2].
7. Disengage the processor ILM assembly load lever on the left side of the
processor socket (viewing the server from the front) by pushing down on the
lever and moving it to the side away from the processor, and then rotating the
lever upward [2].
8. To lift the processor ILM assembly load plate off of the processor socket, rotate
the ILM hinge lever on the right side of the processor toward the closed
position (the ILM load plate is lifted up as the hinge lever is lowered toward
the closed position) and carefully swing the ILM load plate to the fully open
position [3].
Caution – Whenever you remove a processor, you should replace it with another
processor and reinstall the processor heatsink; otherwise, the server might overheat
due to improper airflow. For instructions for installing a processor, see
Processor" on page
112.
9. To remove the processor from the processor socket, acquire the correct processor
removal/replacement tool and perform the following steps:
Caution – Before removing the processor, ensure that you are using the correct
color-coded processor removal/replacement tool. For information on how to select
the correct processor removal/replacement tool, see
Removal/Replacement Tool" on page
a. Locate the button in the center of the top of the processor
removal/replacement tool and press it to the down position (see
Removing a Processor on page 111
b. Properly position the tool over the processor socket and lower it into place
over the processor socket [2].
To properly position the tool over the processor socket, rotate the tool until the
green or pink triangle (depending on which color-coded tool is being used) on
the side of the tool is facing the front of the server and it is over the left side of
the processor socket when viewing the server from the front.
