Finding information and help

See Finding information and help for links to documentation and other resources that can assist in issue resolution.

Product serial number

For ThinkAgile SXM Series solutions that are shipped in a rack, the entire solution is entitled at the rack level, based on the rack Machine Type 9565 and its serial number. For ThinkAgile SXM Series solutions that are integrated into a customer-supplied rack, the solution is also entitled at the rack level, based on Machine Type 7Y34 and a derived “virtual rack serial number” that is created for each customer order.

If you need support for these solutions or any of their components or included software, be sure to use your rack Machine Type and serial number. If you use an individual component (server or switch) serial number, Premier Support might not immediately recognize the correct entitlement, which could delay proper case handling.

For scale unit nodes that are added after the original deployment (i.e. expansion nodes), support entitlement is based on the individual component (server or switch) serial numbers.
