Installing the Processor
CAUTION
1. Processor must be appropriate: You may damage the server board if you install a processor that is
inappropriate for your server. For a web link to the list of compatible processor(s), see “Additional
Information and Software”.
2. ESD and handling processors: Reduce the risk of electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage to the
processor by doing the following:
i. Touch the metal chassis before touching the processor or server board. Keep part of your
body in contact with the metal chassis to dissipate the static charge while handling the
processor.
ii. Avoid moving around unnecessarily.
3. Protective socket cover needs to be removed for proper cooling of the processor; failure to remove
the cover could result in damage to the system.
1. Open the Socket Lever. Push down the lever handle on the open side and away from the socket to
release it (see letter A). Repeat the steps to release the lever on the other side (see letter B).
