4. Identify which CPU and heatsink you are replacing.
The internal system software designation of the two CPUs in the server is shown in
FIGURE 3-7. There is a fault LED on the motherboard for each CPU (see FIGURE 3-8 for
the LED location):
■ LED is off: CPU is OK.
■ LED is lit (amber): CPU has encountered a voltage or heat error condition.

5. Remove the CPU and heatsink from the motherboard:
a. Hold down on the top of the heatsink to prevent it from tipping unevenly
while you alternately loosen the two spring-loaded mounting screws that
secure the heatsink to the motherboard. Turn the screws 180-degrees at a time,
then remove the screws when they are detached. See
FIGURE 3-8 and FIGURE 3-9.
