IBM End of Life vs End of Service Life (EOL vs EOSL)

IBM End-of-life (EOL) indicates that IBM will no longer sell the hardware for that system, market, or update equipment after a certain date. Whereas, End of Service Life (EOSL) means the hardware has been off the market for a few years and now it is not offered any additional software, hardware or warranty service through IBM.

Looking up a IBM warranty by Serial Number

Step 1: Have your IBM serial number and machine number readily available.

You can find these located on the back or bottom of the machine.

Step 2: Visit https://www.ibm.com/support/home/warranty-lookup

This website will help you determine your device’s warranty status, service upgrades, and post-warranty maintenance options.
Locate the “View Your Cases” or “Open a Case” section.

Step 3: Have your IBMid credentials ready, you need these prior to looking-up your warranty.

If it has been a while since you have logged, your IBMid is likely in the form of an email address.  If you need direct assistance recovering your IBMid, please contact your IBMid help desk at [email protected]
