Warranty registration
After completing the upgrade, contact Hewlett Packard Enterprise with the server serial number and new
product number. The warranty of the designated Monarch Server will be transferred to the upgraded
server blade and the service time will be reset. Proof of purchase must be provided and the Hewlett
Packard Enterprise warranty organization must be notified.
The proof of purchase should be a scanned copy or fax of a sales receipt or invoice from Hewlett Packard
Enterprise or an authorized reseller. It can also be an order confirmation, shipping receipt, or reseller
based purchase/shipping confirmation that contains the following:
• The purchase or shipping date.
• The Monarch Server Product Number or Product Name/product description.
• The Serial Number, but it is not required (some invoices do not have serial numbers).
• The vendor’s name (the name of the business where the unit was purchased).
IMPORTANT:
Be sure that all information is clearly readable.

Support
A support Flex Care Pack with at least the same level of care as the server blade to be upgraded (the
Monarch Server) should have been purchased when the Upgrade Kit was ordered. Your Hewlett Packard
Enterprise sales representative will apply the support package to the upgraded server blade and provide
credit for the unused portion of the package purchased for the original Monarch Server. The new Flex
Care Pack must be registered with the serial number of the original Monarch Server (now attached to the
upgraded server) included to ensure support entitlement. For more information, go to
. You can also contact your Hewlett Packard Enterprise sales representative or contact
Hewlett Packard Enterprise sales through the following link:
