Install a processor
Use this information to install a processor. This task requires a Torx T20 driver. The procedure must be
executed by a trained technician.
About this task
Attention:
• Read
“Installation Guidelines” on page 45 and “Safety inspection checklist” on page 46 to ensure that you
work safely.
• Power off the server and disconnect all power cords for this task.
• Prevent exposure to static electricity, which might lead to system halt and loss of data, by keeping static-
sensitive components in their static-protective packages until installation, and handling these devices with
an electrostatic-discharge wrist strap or other grounding system.
Notes:
• The heat sink, processor, and processor carrier for your system might be different from those shown in the
illustrations.
• See
https://serverproven.lenovo.com for a list of processors supported for your server. All processors on
the system board (system board assembly) must have the same speed, number of cores, and frequency.
• Before you install a new processor or replacement processor, update your system firmware to the latest
level. See
“Update the firmware” on page 283.
