IBM software maintenance for AIX operating systems

  

Software Maintenance for AIX® Operating Systems (SWMA) takes IBM's software subscription for upgrade entitlement and IBM's world class technical support organization and combines them into a single offering for IBM Systems running the AIX operating system (OS).


Objectives of SWMA are:
  • Simplify coverage and reduce complexity associated with software support.
  • Deliver a comprehensive base support solution with new AIX system orders.
  • Drive higher levels of customer satisfaction.
  • Enable smooth upgrades for the on demand environment.

Offering highlights:
  • SWMA offers access to AIX version upgrades plus access to support technicians when either or both are needed.
  • All new IBM Systems configured with an AIX OS have the option of including one year of SWMA as part of that configuration.
  • An attractively priced three-year SWMA option is also available for extended coverage.
