After installing the DIMMs, use RBSU ("HP ROM-Based Setup Utility" on page 82) to configure the memory
protection mode.
Processor option
The server supports single-processor and dual-processor operations.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the drives and the
internal system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the processor and system board, only authorized personnel
should attempt to replace or install the processor in this server.
CAUTION: To prevent possible server malfunction and damage to the equipment, multiprocessor
configurations must contain processors with the same part number.
CAUTION: To prevent possible server overheating, always populate processor socket 2 with a
processor and a heatsink or a processor socket cover and a heatsink blank.
IMPORTANT: If installing a processor with a faster speed, update the system ROM before
installing the processor.
IMPORTANT: Processor socket 1 must be populated at all times or the server does not function.
In a multiprocessor configuration, to optimize system performance, HP recommends balancing the total
capacity of the DIMMs across the processors.
