Processor Upgrade PL6000

Is it possible to upgrade the Proliant 6000 that shipped with quad Pentium Pros to the Xeon processors?
If so, what is the path, i.e., mainboard part numbers, firmware updates/etc.
Thanks,

ben

Re: Processor Upgrade PL6000

Compaq has special ProLiant 6000 Pentium Xeon Server Upgrade kit P/N 312134-B21
Kit include:
I/O and System boards
Memory boards
Miscellaneous mechanical components
Hardware upgrade assist CD
Hardware and software documentation
Bundled hardware instillation service.
Note that Fast Page Mode memory DIMMs are not supported and if you use this memory, you need purchase EDO Memory.
Pentium Xeon processors are not included in the Xeon Server Upgrade.

Thanks for the info, but I could not find the part on the Parts Surfer search function. Is it out of stock maybe?
