Processor board replacement (trained technicians only)
Use this section to remove and install the processor board from the system board assembly.
Note: When the server has a Liquid Assisted Cooling Module (LACM) installed, you must apply for a LACM
module handle (LACM heat sink bracket) first if you need to install or remove the system board assembly or
processor. However, while replacing the old LACM with a new one, you do not need to apply for a module
handle (LACM heat sink bracket) as the new LACM package contains it.
Remove the processor board
Follow instructions in this section to remove the processor board.
About this task
A processor board provides different connectors or slots to connect different components or peripherals of
the system for communication. The board and the supporting metal sheet constitute a base for the system
board assembly. If the processor board fails, it must be replaced.
Attention:
• Read
“Installation Guidelines” on page 51 and “Safety inspection checklist” on page 52 to ensure that you
work safely.
• Power off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect the power cords and all external cables. See
“Power off the server” on page 68.
