Step 6
Close the socket latch. See callout 1.
Step 7
Secure the hook. See callout 2.
Step 8
Using the syringe of thermal grease provided with replacement CPUs and servers (and available separately as
UCS-CPU-GREASE=), add 2 cubic centimeters of thermal grease to the top of the CPU where it will contact the heat
sink. Use the pattern shown below. This should require half the contents of the syringe.
Figure 15: Thermal Grease Application Pattern
The thermal grease has very specific thermal properties, and thermal grease from other sources should not be
substituted. Using other thermal greases may lead to damage.
Caution
Step 9
Replace the heat sink. See callout 3.
On certain models, heat sinks are keyed to fit into the plastic baffle extending from the motherboard. Do not
force a heat sink if it is not fitting well, rotate it and re-orient the heat sink.
Caution
Step 10
Secure the heat sink to the motherboard by tightening the four captive screws a quarter turn at a time in an X pattern as
shown in the upper right of the figure.
Installing Memory
To install a DIMM into the blade server, follow these steps:
Procedure
Step 1
Press the DIMM into its slot evenly on both ends until it clicks into place.
DIMMs are keyed. If a gentle force is not sufficient, make sure the notch on the DIMM is correctly aligned.
Be sure that the notch in the DIMM aligns with the slot. If the notch is misaligned you may damage the DIMM,
the slot, or both.
Note
Step 2
Press the DIMM connector latches inward slightly to seat them fully.
