PM for Power Systems levels of support



This level of support is available for systems under warranty or a

maintenance agreement. Users with Summary support have access to

monthly statistics for the Server or LPAR via the Server Information Page,

as well as the Management Summary Graph report.



Full Function support

This level of support is available for a nominal fee as either a standalone

offering, or included in a comprehensive services package such as

Enhanced Technical Support. This option gives the user access to a

monthly detailed report, as well as the Interactive Graphing capability of

PM for Power Systems. With Interactive Graphing, a user is able to view

the PM data within 1 business day of IBM receiving the data.

Creating a Group

One of the features of PM for Power Systems is the ability to create

groups of servers. A group is a collection of servers/LPARs based on

the user’s business requirements. For example, a user might have

several groups that are based on business regions.

Authorize Additional Users

The creator of a group, or “group owner”, can also grant authorization

to other users. These “authorized users” are allowed to view the

group, but not make any changes.

Adding Servers to a Group

Once a group is created, servers may be added to it. To add a server, use the

information provided in the registration letter which was sent after the server or

LPAR’s first PM data transmission. If the registration key has been lost or

forgotten, a link is provided on the Add Server page to request a new one.
