■How to Remove a CPU

To remove a CPU, simply reverse the installation procedures.
7.3.4 Defective CPU Disconnection Function
This server is equipped with the defective CPU disconnection function.
This function disconnects the CPU judged to be defective (abnormal) during Power On Self Test
(POST) to start the server. On two-CPU servers, if one CPU is defective, the other CPU starts up the
server.
The defective CPU can be checked with the information displayed during POST or the [CPU Status]
submenu in the [Server] menu of the BIOS Setup Utility ("8.2.13 CPU Status Submenu" (pg.227)).

■Removing the Defective CPU

Replace the defective CPU with a new one according to "7.3.3 How to Install a CPU" (pg.171).
After replacing the CPU, start the BIOS Setup Utility and select the [Server] menu → "8.2.13 CPU
Status Submenu" (pg.227) to check that [CPU n Status] (n is the number of the replaced CPU) is set
to [Enabled].
If the item is set to [Failed] or [Disabled], change the setting to [Enabled].
If it is not set to [Enabled], the server will start with the CPU recognized as being defective and
constantly disconnected. To use the new CPU, set the item to [Enabled] for releasing the failed CPU
status at the next startup.
