IBM Electronic Service Agent version 3.0 - Systems Management Thu, 18 Mar 2004 00:00:00 EST http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=ibm&lndocid=MIGR-51985 The IBM Electronic Service Agent (TM) for xSeries and Netfinity is "no-additional-charge" software that resides on the customer's system designed to monitor events and transmit system inventory information to IBM. It is available for two environments:

1. Open system environment: does not require system management software to be installed
2. IBM Director environment: provided as a Director Extension installed on the IBM Director Central Management Server

This monitor tracks and captures system inventory and hardware error logs and automatically reports hardware problems to IBM if the server is under a service agreement or warranty. Information collected through Electronic Service Agent is available to IBM support reps while they are working your problem. Electronic Service Agent communicates with IBM via a secure internet connection using encryption and authentication, or by a dialup connection using AT&T Global Network Services.
