Re: how to escalate IBM software support ticket -- MIDRANGE-L

× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Call the IBM 1 800 IBM SERV line, give them the PMR number, and ask to speak with the Duty Manager. The DM should be able to escalate the problem.

Call your sales rep and complain and demand the sales rep escalate the problem through the sales channel.

Not wanting to start a rant or war, but what to do when a critical issue
has finished two days of emails back & forth but nowhere near a resolution.
No recommendation. Repeated request for them to call. This is first time I
started ticket via web site.
We failed 2 days in a row (each w/different tapes) to complete a SAV,
with tape media errors, when we changed *ALWSAV attribute on image catalogs
directory to *Yes. It made tape unusable for next step SAVLIB. All works
again when we change ALWSAV back to *NO on that directory. So far they have
said the published ptfs in this area don't match the issue.
We will test new hardware coming in next week, and I can't get a full save
to complete...
