Use these guidelines to ensure that the compute node meets
the cooling and system reliability requirements:
- To ensure proper cooling, the Flex System chassis
is not operated without a compute node or node bay filler in each
node bay. See "Flex System Enterprise Chassis Types 8721, 8724,
and 8725: Installation and Service Guide" for additional information.
- Each microprocessor socket always contains a microprocessor
and heat sink.
- The air baffles are installed over the DIMM connectors.
- The ventilation holes on the compute node are not blocked.
- The compute node CMOS battery
is operational. If the CMOS battery becomes defective, replace it
immediately.
