Installing a Microprocessor

6.Locate the primary and secondary microprocessor sockets on the processor boards, as shown in the following illustration. Your server comes with a microprocessor preinstalled in the primary socket. Therefore, you will install the new microprocessor in the secondary socket (also known as an upgrade socket).

Note: Both microprocessors on a processor board must have the same speed to ensure proper server operation.

.5/ Pin 1 location

.6/ Lower processor socket, with lever (latch) in open position

.7/ Upper processor socket, empty, with lever in closed, locked position

.8/ Completed microprocessor/heat-sink assembly

7.While you are handling boards and microprocessors, place them on a grounded, static-protective or conductive-foam surface.

8.Lift the lever on the secondary socket. Verify that the socket lever is completely opened to the vertical position.
