Service and support
The DS4000 series has a three-year
hardware warranty. Additional services
for hardware installation, DS4000
Storage Manager configuration and
advanced storage management are
also available from IBM Global Services
(IGS). IBM SupportLine services can
assist with using DS4000 Storage
Manager, helping to enable customers
to self-maintain their DS4000 system.
The optional DS4000 Service Alert fea-
ture is designed to enable the DS4300
to quickly notify the IBM Support
Center of problems when they occur,
helping to reduce or eliminate the need
for the customer to place a service call.
This feature is capable of forwarding
error alert messages (via e-mail) from
DS4000 Storage Manager to IBM to
help expedite diagnosis and repair of
failed hardware and software problems.
