Processor troubleshooting prerequisites
The actions in this section include removing, replacing, or reseating processors. Be sure to review the alert information before removing, replacing, or reseating a processor. The processor socket requires specific installation, and removal and replacement steps. For more information on processor removal and replacement, see the compute module maintenance and service guide in the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Information Library.
Removal of some processors and heatsinks requires special considerations for replacement, while other processors and heatsinks are integrated and cannot be reused once separated. For specific instructions for the compute module you are troubleshooting, see the processor information in the compute module user guide in the Hewlett Packard Enterprise Information Library.
Before removing or replacing any processors, be sure to follow the Processor troubleshooting guidelines in this document. Failure to follow the recommended guidelines can damage the processor or system board, requiring replacement of the system board.
