4242.0. "DEC 7000 Firmware Help" by CSOA1::GELO () Thu Nov 02 1995 09:47

    The local delivery organization gave a customer a firmware upgrade for
    a DEC 7000 system. the part # ordered was QZ-K62AA-L8. Can anyone give
    advise on how future system updates are supposed to be delivered? Does
    the customer receive them as part of a warranty or service? Or is the
    customer to be billed for the update? I've called around the company,
    and no one seems to know........or care enough to return my calls.
    
    Thanks for your help,

    	RE: -1   I checked your part number, but found a different suffix
    		 on it. Looks like the product is sold through our service
    		 providers and they should be able to answer your questions
    		 regarding the level of service the customer has purchased.
    		 If they need to purchase it, VAX 7000 CONSOLE UPDATE, 
    		 the P/N is:  QZ-K62AA-U8, USCLP  $500.00.
    		 Note: Your request indicated a DEC 7000, but the part
    		 number is pointing towards a VAX 7000. I'd give your local
    		 MSC office a call, they should have the resources your
    		 looking for.  
4242.2U8 for external ordersMKOTS3::MACDONALDThu Nov 02 1995 11:4911
    I used to be the product manager for the referenced parts.  The
    QZ-K62AA-L8 should only be ordered for internal use.  The QZ-K62AA-U8
    is for external use and can be ordered by customers though DECdirect or
    their local field sales office.
    
    For further information, the current product manager is George
    Gardner, STOWOA::GARDNER.  He can also assist with identifying the 
    right person in MCS to answer the questions on how should the update
    be delivered.
    I.e., warranty/service.
