Additional services for hardware instal-
lation, DS4000 Storage Manager con-
figuration and advanced storage
management are also available from
IBM Global Services (IGS). IBM Support
Line services can assist with using
DS4000 Storage Manager, helping to
enable customers to self-maintain their
DS4000 system.
The optional DS4000 Service Alert and
the new DS4000 Alert Manager serv-
ices are designed to enable the
DS4200 to quickly notify the

detects a problem, helping to reduce or
eliminate the need for the customer to
place a service call. This feature is
capable of forwarding error alert mes-
sages (via e-mail) from DS4000 Storage
Manager to IBM to help expedite diag-
nosis and repair of failed hardware and
software problems.
