CPU Upgrade

Electrostatic Discharge

1CPU Upgrade

The Central Processing Unit (CPU) upgrade for the HP 3000 and HP 9000 system is accomplished by

adding CPU cards to the existing CPU card slots within the computer cabinet. The number of CPUs

supported on each system model is as follows:.

NOTE CPUs for HP 9000/K100 models are an integral part of the system board. There is

no CPU upgrade for these models.

929KS/020, 939KS, and 939KS/020 models support a single processor only.

Electrostatic Discharge

CPU cards and computer systems contain assemblies and components that are sensitive to electrostatic

discharge (ESD). Carefully observe the precautions listed in this section and use the ESD wrist strap,

ESD sheet, and ESD foam pad provided in the ESD kit (part number A3024-80004).

The following precautions can significantly reduce the risk of system failure or component damage due

to ESD.

• Always wear an anti-static wrist strap when working around a system or handling the CPU card.

• Treat all assemblies, components, cards, and connections as sensitive.

• When unpacking cards or components to the system, keep the item in it's conductive bag until it is

ready to be installed.

• Keep body movement to a minimum, this generates static electricity that causes ESD.

• Avoid working in carpeted areas.

• Try to select a work area where potential static sources are minimized.

Anti-Static Wrist Strap

The anti-static wrist strap is a bracelet-like strap that goes around either wrist. The other end of the strap

connects to a convenient metal surface on the computer cabinet.

CPU Configuration Rules

Anti-Static Mat

The anti-static mat can be either the conductive bag, the ESD sheet, or the ESD foam pad. The anti-static

mat does not have to be connected to the cabinet. It should be placed close to the computer while

performing the upgrade tasks.

CPU Configuration Rules

The rules for adding a CPU to a system are as follows:

1. The computer must have a CPU installed in slot 0 (zero).

2. All additional CPUs are added in sequential order (1, 2,... and so on).

Once the CPU card is added to the computer, it is automatically configured into the system during the

computer power on selftest process.

CPU Location

The CPU slots for both the HP 3000/9x9KS and HP 9000/K2xx and K4xx SPUs are the same. Figure 1-1

and Figure 1-2 shows the CPU locations for these systems. Figure 1-1, front view, shows the system with

the front bezel and bulkheads (or cover plates) removed. Figure 1-2, rear view, shows the system with the

back cover removed.

Figure 1-1 CPU Location, Front View (All Models)

Item 2 shows the location of CPU slots 0 and slot 1. Slot 0 is located next to the power monitor and Slot

1 is located next to the peripheral cage.

Item 3 shows the location of CPU slot 2 and slot 3 (see the note following). Slot 2 is located next to the

power supply and slot 3 is located to the left of CPU slot 2.

NOTE On HP3000/979KS/989KS and HP9000 models, the power supply and processor

covers conceal slots 2 and 3. Access to these slots requires removal of the power

supply.

Figure 1-3 shows the location of CPU slots 2 through 5. Slot 4 is located between slots 3 and 5. Slot 5 is

located next to the Kx70/Kx80 HP-HSC expansion slot.

CPU Upgrade

Tools required

To accomplish adding a CPU to the computer the following tools are required:

• A Torx #10 driver. (This is the preferred tool)

• A flat blade screw driver. (this can be used if a Torx driver is not available)

• A3204-80004 ESD Kit (included with the CPU Upgrade Kit)

Adding a CPU Card

Be sure to observe all ESD precautions. The suggested time to perform the upgrade is at a non-peak

usage time for the computer. You must also know how many CPUs are already in the computer, this will

determine if you add to the available front slot (1) or the rear slots (2 and 3). Once you have identified

which slot or slots to add to, reference the appropriate procedures for adding a CPU card.

Before starting the actual installation of a CPU card there are certain preparation procedures to perform:

1. Log Off all users and stop all active applications that may be running.

2. Perform a system backup of the entire Operating System and data base. If this is not feasible, perform

a backup of the data base. (This should be done at a scheduled interval as common practice for

protecting any new data or changes to the existing data base.)

3. Perform a system shutdown. Enter “/etc/shutdown -h” at the prompt.

4. Turn the computer key switch to the STANDBY position.

5. At the rear of the computer, unplug the power cord.

Adding CPU #1

1. Remove the computer key from the switch.

2. Reach down, under each front lower corner of the front Bezel (Figure 1-4), press the latch tabs (item

1) and pull the bottom of the front bezel away from the computer.

Figure 1-4 Front Bezel Removal

3. The front bezel should unhinge from the top of computer with the bottom of the bezel angled away

from the computer.

4. With the Torx driver (or flat blade screw driver) remove the CPU/Memory cover plate (Item1, Figure

1-5) by loosening the four (two top and two bottom) captive screws.

Figure 1-5 CPU/Memory Cover Plate

5. Identify CPU slot 1 and carefully reach into the computer cabinet and remove the CPU connector

dust cover, on the system board, by grasping the extended tab and pulling it out.

6. Remove the protective dust cover from the CPU card and align the CPU card into slot 1. Be sure

the air guide and card components are on the right-hand side of the card during installation.

7. Insert the CPU card until it contacts the system board connector, then press firmly to seat the card.

8. Replace the CPU/Memory cover plate and tighten the four captive mounting screws.

9. Replace the bezel by angling the top of the bezel toward the computer while slipping the top edge

under and up into the top overhang of the computer.

10.Then push the bottom of the bezel onto the computer cabinet until the mounting tabs snap into place.

At this point, refer to the Installation Verification section to determine how to ensure that the computer

has configured the new CPU(s).
