Processor installation guidelines
• You can install one or two processors.
• To avoid damage to a processor or the system board, only H3C authorized or professional
server engineers can install, replace, or remove a processor.
• Make sure the processors on the server are the same model.
• If a processor has a U suffix in the model, it indicates that the processor supports only
single-processor operation. For more information about processor model suffixes, see
Table
14.
• The pins in the processor sockets are very fragile and prone to damage. Install a protective
cover if a processor socket is empty.
• For the server to operate correctly, make sure processor 1 is in position. For more information
about processor locations, see "
System board components."
• To avoid damages to the electric components, wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it
makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
• To prevent bodily damage from high processor heatsink temperatures during the removal
process, take necessary protection measures before performing any operations.
Processor model suffixes
If the model of a processor is UN-CPU-INTEL-8490H, the model suffix is H. For more information
about the supported processor models, use the component compatibility lookup tool at
http://www.h3c.com/en/home/qr/default.htm?id=66
.
Table 14 displays the meanings of processor model suffixes for the Intel Eagle Stream CPUs.
