7.3.4 Defective CPU Disconnection Function
This server is equipped with the defective CPU disconnection function.
This function disconnects the CPU judged to be defective (abnormal) during Power On Self Test
(POST) to start the server. On two-CPU servers, if one CPU is defective, the other CPU starts up the
server.
The defective CPU can be checked with the information displayed during POST.
Removing the Defective CPU
Remove the defective CPU, referring to " How to Remove a CPU" (pg.180).
After replacing the CPU, start the BIOS Setup Utility and select the [Server] menu "8.2.13 CPU Status
Submenu" (pg.244) to check that [CPU n Status] (n is the number of the CPU) is set to [Enabled]. If
the item is set to [Disabled] or [Failed], change the setting to [Enabled]. If it is not set to [Enabled], the
server will start with the CPU recognized as being defective and constantly disconnected.
To use the new CPU, set the item to [Enabled] for releasing the failed CPU status at the next startup.
