Replaceable management node components

Replaceable components consist of consumable parts, structural parts, and customer replaceable units (CRUs)::
  • Consumables: Purchase and replacement of consumable parts (components such as printer cartridges, that have depletable life) are your responsibility. If IBM acquires or installs a consumable part at your request, you will be charged for the installation.
  • Structural parts: Purchase and replacement of structural parts (components such as the top cover) are your responsibility. If IBM acquires or installs a structural part at your request, you will be charged for the installation.
  • Tier 1 customer replaceable unit (CRU): Replacement of Tier 1 CRUs is your responsibility. If IBM installs a Tier 1 CRU at your request without a service contract, you will be charged for the installation.
  • Tier 2 customer replaceable unit: You can install a Tier 2 CRU yourself or request IBM to install it, at no additional charge, under the type of warranty service that is designated for your management node.

For information about the terms of the warranty and getting service and assistance, see the Warranty Information document.
