[Fayis]

I have to upgrade rp5470 (A6144B
) with single Processor of 550 Mhz(A6146-69001
) , what is the upgrade path available..?

can we mix the processor PA-8600 and PA-8700 in rp5470 ?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Mahin,

I don't know if you can mix 8600 and 8700 processors but here are the upgarde paths

A6798A HP PA-RISC processor - 650MHz PA-RISC 8700 with 1.5MB cache - Includes attached heat sink

A6805A HP PA-RISC processor - 750MHz PA-RISC 8700 with 1.5MB cache - Includes attached heat sink

Generally, the different processors will require a different mother board and that board will be part of the upgrade package.

So, no, it is highly unlikely that you can mix two different processors.

Hi,
you can't mix PA8600 and PA8700.
If you want to install PA8700 in rp5470 (A6144B) you should buy processors:

A6798A PA8700 650MHz CPU f HP srvr rp54X0
or
A6805A PA8700 750MHz CPU f HP srvr rp54X0
or
A6805B PA8700 750MHz CPU f HP srvr rp54X0
or
A6152A PA8700+ 875MHz CPU f HP serv rp54X0

and

A6799A Processor Support Module for PA8700 CPU
(one processor support module for every 2 CPUs)
