Figure 4-23. Installing a second processor
NOTE: The heatsink and processor guides may vary according to processor speed.
Depending on your server, the heat sink and processor mounting hardware may appear
different than illustrated in this guide.
NOTE: Processor switch settings do not require any adjustment when a second processor
is installed. The system automatically detects and configures the processor.
6. Reassemble the server.
7. Prepare to install the Processor Power Module.
NOTE: When more than one processor is installed in your server, both processors must
be running at the same speed. ProLiant ML370 servers do not support mixed processor
speeds.
Installing a Processor Power Module
Every processor supplied by Compaq comes with a Processor Power Module
(DC-to-DC converter). Each Processor Power Module (PPM) must be installed
in the slot adjacent to its processor to provide power to that processor. If the
processor is installed in processor slot 1, install the PPM in PPM slot 1. If the
processor is installed in slot 2, install the PPM in slot 2. To locate the
appropriate slots, refer to the label on the large access panel or to the system
board illustration at the end of this chapter.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the
internal system components to cool before touching surfaces.
