SUMMARY: Is used Sun memory automatically covered under Sun maintenance?

2007-12-25 5:10:00

Thanks to the many people who weighed in on this subject! There really
doesn't seem to be a consensus, other than the correct approach being to
purchase the memory directly from Sun and let them know the specific
server it is being installed in. Otherwise, it seems to be a matter of
an individual's and company's comfort level. Many subscribe to the idea
that as long as it is Sun branded, bar-coded memory, the maintenance
will be covered. The caveat for using non-Sun memory is to remove it
before the Sun field engineer opens up the server.

We are considering the purchase of used Sun memory for a V480 from a
third party vendor. Does anyone know either first-hand or anecdotally
how support for this server/memory is handled under Sun maintenance?
Some vendors will cover anything in the server with their name on it,
while others won't, where does Sun fall?

Thanks in advance!
