Installing a Dual Processor Module
NOTE Before installing a dual processor module into your system, read the following instructions
carefully and see Figure 6-18, “Installing Dual Processor Module on Processor Extender
Board,” for a complete understanding of this process.
To install a dual processor module on the processor extender board, follow these steps:
Step 1. Remove the processor extender board from the server and place it on an antistatic mat. (See
“Removing the Processor Extender Board” on page 192.)
Step 2. Locate the socket (CPU0, CPU1, CPU2, or CPU3) where you will install the dual processor module
as shown in Figure 6-15.

Step 3. Ensure that the cam on the processor socket lock is in the unlocked, counterclockwise position.
Step 4. Remove any protective packaging from the processor module.
TIP Protective covers can be installed to protect connector pins. Save covers for future
use.
Step 5. Inspect the pins of the processor to be installed. Verify that the processor pins are not bent.
