The
voltage
regulators
for
microprocessors
1
and
2
are
integrated
on
the
microprocessor
board;
the
VRMs
for
microprocessors
3
and
4
come
with
the
microprocessor
options
and
must
be
installed
on
the
microprocessor
board.
v
When
installing
additional
microprocessors,
populate
the
microprocessor
connectors
in
numeric
order,
starting
with
connector
2.
v
Read
the
documentation
that
comes
with
the
microprocessor
to
determine
whether
you
must
update
the
basic
input/output
system
(BIOS)
code
in
the
server.
To
