Frequently asked questions
Click or the topic for details:
Can I use the 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors in a non-R revision of the Intel® Server Board S2600BP Family?
Yes, the hardware is compatible, but the Intel® Server Board has to be at a minimum of BIOS version 02.01.0008 to boot with 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor installed. Once booted, you must upgrade to production BIOS for the CPU to run properly and the new features to become available.
Steps
- Download latest BIOS version (02.01.0008 or later).
- Install Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors (formerly codenamed Skylake).
- Update to version 02.01.0008 or later.
- Install 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors (formerly codenamed Cascade Lake).
- Update to latest production BIOS.
