Moving an M5 Generation CPU
Tool required for this procedure: T-30 Torx driver
When you receive a replacement server for an RMA, it includes dust covers on all CPU sockets. These covers
protect the socket pins from damage during shipping. You must transfer these covers to the system that you
are returning, as described in this procedure.
Caution
Step 1 When moving an M5 CPU to a new server, you do not have to separate the heatsink from the CPU. Perform the following
steps:
a) Use a T-30 Torx driver to loosen the four captive nuts that secure the assembly to the board standoffs.
Alternate loosening the heatsink nuts evenly so that the heatsink remains level as it is raised. Loosen the
heatsink nuts in the order shown on the heatsink label: 4, 3, 2, 1.
Note
b) Lift straight up on the CPU/heatsink assembly to remove it from the board.
c) Set the CPUs with heatsinks aside on an anti-static surface.
