DS8 Expert Care Default Premium

When using eConfig for DS8000 configurations, the Expert Care selection now defaults to Premium. This is currently only being done in the US currently, where Premium is the choice in most cases. When Advanced is the preferred option, a password is required.

In those situations where Advanced is the preferred option, please have the partner contact me, Brian Kraemer, or Ricardo Clemente. We are looking to understand the reasoning so that we can focus on adding value to the Premium option where needed. We don’t expect this to occur frequently and will look to move them forward quickly.

Here are email addresses:
Brian Kraemer - kraemer1@us.ibm.com
Ricardo Clemente - ricardo.clemente@ibm.com
