Warranty options
The IBM System x3550 M4 has a three-year onsite warranty with 9x5/next business day terms. IBM offers
the warranty service upgrades through IBM ServicePacs, discussed in this section. The IBM ServicePac
is a series of prepackaged warranty maintenance upgrades and post-warranty maintenance agreements
with a well-defined scope of services, including service hours, response time, term of service, and service
agreement terms and conditions.
IBM ServicePac offerings are country-specific, that is, each country might have its own service types,
service levels, response times, and terms and conditions. Not all covered types of ServicePacs might be
available in a particular country. For more information about IBM ServicePac offerings available in your
