Installing a microprocessor and heat sink
Use this information to install a microprocessor and heat sink in the blade server.
The following notes describe the type of microprocessor that the server supports
and other information that you must consider when you install a microprocessor:
v If you are installing a second microprocessor, make sure that microprocessor 2 is
identical to microprocessor 1. Information about the microprocessor installed in
your blade server can be viewed in the Setup utility (see “Using the Setup
utility” on page 56).
v For a list of microprocessors that the blade server supports, see
http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/serverproven/compat/us/
v Before you install a new microprocessor, download and install the most current
level of BIOS code (see “Firmware updates” on page 62).
v The microprocessors terminate themselves; therefore, no terminator card is
required if microprocessor socket 2 is empty on the blade server or on the MPE.
However, for proper airflow, socket 2 must contain a microprocessor heat-sink
filler, sometimes called a microprocessor baffle.
v The microprocessor speeds are automatically set for the blade server; therefore,
you do not have to set any microprocessor frequency-selection jumpers or
switches.
The following illustration shows how to install a microprocessor and heat sink in
the blade server.
