Installing
an
additional
microprocessor
Your
server
comes
with
one
microprocessor
installed
on
the
system
board.
Your
server
supports
up
to
two
microprocessors.
With
two
microprocessors,
your
server
can
operate
as
a
symmetric
multiprocessing
(SMP)
server.
With
SMP,
certain
operating
systems
and
application
programs
can
distribute
the
processing
load
among
the
microprocessors.
Before
you
begin:
v
Thoroughly
review
the
documentation
that
comes
with
the
microprocessor
to
determine
the
required
BIOS
update.
The
latest
level
of
BIOS
code
for
your
server
is
available
from
the
World
Wide
Web.
See
the
User’s
Guide
on
the
IBM
xSeries
Documentation
CD
for
the
World
Wide
Web
addresses.
v
(Optional)
Obtain
an
SMP-capable
operating
system.
For
a
list
of
supported
operating
systems
and
other
options,
go
to
http://www.ibm.com/us/compat/
on
the
World
Wide
Web.
Attention:
To
ensure
proper
server
operation
when
you
install
an
additional
microprocessor,
use
microprocessors
that
have
the
same
cache
size
and
type,
and
the
same
clock
speed.
Microprocessor
internal
and
external
clock
frequencies
must
be
identical.
You
can
use
the
Configuration/Setup
Utility
program
in
your
server
to
determine
the
specific
type
of
microprocessor
on
your
system
board.
Important:
A
microprocessor
must
always
be
installed
in
socket
CPU1
of
the
system
board.
Notes:
1.
To
order
additional
microprocessor
options,
contact
your
IBM
marketing
representative
or
authorized
reseller.
2.
Terminator
cards
are
not
required
for
empty
microprocessor
sockets.
However,
for
airflow,
an
empty
microprocessor
socket
must
contain
a
microprocessor
baffle.
3.
The
microprocessor
speeds
are
automatically
set
for
this
server;
therefore,
you
do
not
need
to
set
any
microprocessor
frequency-selection
jumpers
or
switches.
4.
If
you
need
to
replace
a
microprocessor,
call
for
service.

Configuring
the
operating
system
Some
operating
systems
need
to
be
configured
to
support
an
additional
microprocessor.
See
your
operating-system
documentation
for
information.
If
Windows
®
2000
is
installed
in
the
server,
complete
the
following
steps
to
configure
the
operating
system.
Check
the
Microsoft
®
web
page
at
http://www.microsoft.com
for
updates
to
these
instructions.
In
the
Microsoft
Web
page,
type

support
in
the
Search
field
and
press
Enter.
