4. Connect the heatsink's cooling fan connector to the 2nd cooling fan connector (CPU 2 Fan) on the
system board. See Figure 3-19.
CAUTION Failure to connect the cooling fan to its power connector will cause the server to shut
down with no messages displayed, possibly causing damage to the processor.
NOTE No speed switch settings are required for the supported processors in the HP Server.
These processors rely on the internal settings within the processors and do not rely on the
external switch settings.
5. Close the side panel.
6. Replace the external cables and power cord.
7. Power up the server and return it to normal operation.
Removing a Processor and Heatsink
Use this procedure to remove a processor and its heatsink. The heatsink and cooling fan must be removed
first, before removing the processor.
CAUTION Always wear a wrist-strap and use a static-dissipating work surface connected to the
chassis when handling components. Ensure the metal of the wrist strap contacts your
skin.
Before you touch the processor to remove it, touch a grounded, unpainted metal surface
on the HP Server to discharge static electricity.
NOTE If you need to remove the primary processor (CPU 1), you may find it necessary to
remove the power and system fan connectors to access the primary processor.
1. Disconnect the cooling fan connector from its respective cooling fan connector on the system board.
2. Unhook the thumb latch on the heatsink and lift the heatsink up slightly from the processor.
3. Rotate the heatsink away from the processor toward the rear of the server, releasing the opposing latch.
4. Lift the heatsink away from the processor and out of the server.
5. Open the ZIF lever to allow removal of the processor. See Figure 3-18.
6. Grasp the processor by its edges and lift it out of the socket and place it on a static-dissipating work
surface or into an anti-static bag.
If you are not replacing the processor with a new or replacement processor, you must install the terminator in
the empty processor socket. See Figure 3-17.
