I disagree about the search
I search for
Service request site:ibm.com

The first link worked (and it wasn't even in English)
Underneath the heading "Open a case" and pick "IBM Z and IBM i software products"

Second link. Some totally unrelated product however I scrolled down in it until I found "Access the IBM Support Portal." Clicked on that
Underneath the heading "Open a case" and pick "IBM Z and IBM i software products"

Third link. Just a few lines down you see: Access SR at http://www.ibm.com/support/servicerequest/

Hit that Jack and mellow out.

Jack Daniels, single barrel, but to the point, even if you search for it, you can't find it.

To add to the confusion, since IBM i has not been moved to the new site, and storage has, you need two entirely different sets of URLs for everything, and I can tell you, most of it does not work.....

I miss Walt Ling. He never let support get away from the customers......

Methinks you need to consume better scotch.

Subject: IBM "Support" site

Ever since the "New" support site has been set up and we have to use
that, it's been impossible to get into the site to update PMRs, or god
forbid create one.

Is this IBMs new plan for cutting down support calls, only take the
SEV 1 calls on line?

It was bad before, but manageable, now it's nearly impossible.......

Anyone figured out how to use this piece of web &%$# ????
