AST RESEARCH, INC. INFORMATIONAL BULLETIN # 0003 05-16-96
TITLE: Manhattan P and V with ODP Upgrade
SUMMARY
When an Intel OverDrive processor (ODP) is installed in a Manhattan
P or V series file server, certain procedures must be observed to
ensure a successful upgrade. See the procedures below.
This issue applies to all Manhattan P and V systems.
NOTES
Use the following procedure when installing the ODP:
1. Remove the CPU card.
2. Remove the original processor from its socket.
3. Install the ODP in the CPU card's Socket 5 (the socket with a
locking lever) upgrade socket.
4. Install the jumper E3 (labeled 'Dual CPU') if present.
5. Reinstall the CPU card.
Observe proper Electro Static Discharge (ESD) procedures while
performing the above procedure or any other service requiring
opening the system chassis.
It is not possible to run ODP upgrades in a dual processor
configuration. The ODP upgrade processors do not incorporate
Multi Processing (MP) support.
The server hardware does not cause this limitation.
