The server can contain one or two dual-core processors that provide the following configuration
options:
• 1P/2C (One processor/two cores)
• 2P/4C (Two processors/four cores)
WARNING! Ensure that the system is powered off and all power sources have been disconnected
from the server prior to performing this procedure.
Voltages are present at various locations within the server whenever an AC power source is
connected. This voltage is present even when the main power switch is in the off position.
Failure to observe this warning can result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
CAUTION: Ensure that processor speed and cache size are identical for all processors. Failure
to observe this caution results in performance degradation or system failure.
To ensure compatibility, use dual-core processors with identical part numbers.
CAUTION: Observe all ESD safety precautions before attempting this procedure. Failure to follow
ESD safety precautions can result in damage to the server.
Processor Load Order
The server can have up to two dual-core processors on the processor board. The slots on the
processor board are labeled Module 0 and Module 1.
Table 8 lists the processor load sequence.

Required Tools
To install processors, use the processor install tool fastened to the processor board.
Installing a Dual-Core Processor
To install a dual-core processor, follow these steps:
1. Remove the memory carrier assembly cover. See “Removing the Memory Carrier Assembly
Cover” (page 13).
NOTE: You do not need to fully remove the top cover to service this component; however,
the top cover release lever must be open.
2. Remove the memory carrier assembly. See “Removing the Memory Carrier Assembly” (page 21)
NOTE: You must remove the memory carrier because it attaches directly to the processor
board.
3. Remove the processor board assembly. See “Removing the Processor Board Assembly”
(page 28).
