Independent DS8000 support after IBM EOSL.
DS8700, DS8800, and DS8880 still sit under z/OS and AIX workloads after IBM Hardware Maintenance ends. We quote frames, flash, and device adapters.
DS8000 EOSL is a parts and process problem, not a finding that the frame failed. We replace device adapters, I/O drawers, and HDD or flash. Host volumes stay where they are.
XIV, DS4000/5000, and N-Series in the same shop go on the same contract. FlashSystem is a separate family if that is also in the room.
45 listed models on this page. Current, last-gen, EOL, and EOSL. If a serial is not listed, send it.

FAQ
Questions about DS8000.
Do you cover DS8000 after the manufacturer ends support?
Yes. Include the serial with the quote request. If we cannot source the part, we will tell you before you sign.
Can you work on DS8880 and DS8900F as well as older frames?
Yes. 8100 through 8980F are listed. Older 8100, 8300, and 8700 are EOSL and still quoted. Microcode policy for z systems is scoped on the quote.
Can EOSL hardware share a contract with current equipment?
Yes. You can mix service levels in the same room — 2-hour onsite on production, next-business-day on a lab system — including brands the manufacturer no longer lists.
