Failure to observe this warning could result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
CAUTION Do not operate the server without the cover in place. Operation of the server without the cover in place may
result in server failure. Operation of the server without the cover in place will make the server susceptible to
EMI problems.
Observe all ESD safety precautions before attempting this procedure. Failure to follow ESD safety
precautions could result in damage to the server.
Avoid contact with the processor heatsink if the server has been operating prior to the installation of the
additional processor. The heatsink will be safe to touch after the cover has been removed for a few seconds.
Installing an Additional Processor
CAUTION Ensure that the cache size is identical for all processors. Failure to observe this caution will result in system
failure.
Ensure that all processors are rated for use at the same speed. Failure to observe this caution will result in
performance degradation.
Valid processors are identified in Chapter 8, “Parts Information.”
Processor Load Order
Processors are located on the system board. The system board can support either one or two processors. CPU 0 is located to the
right of the system board and CPU 1 (when installed) is located on the left of the system board next to the bridge assembly. In
a single CPU configuration, the single processor must be installed in CPU 0 slot.
