Replaceable components are of four types:
v Consumable part: Purchase and replacement of consumable parts
(components, such as batteries and printer cartridges, that have depletable life)
is your responsibility. If IBM acquires or installs a consumable part at your
request, you will be charged for the service.
v Tier 1 customer replaceable unit (CRU): Replacement of Tier 1 CRUs is your
responsibility. If IBM installs a Tier 1 CRU at your request, you will be charged for
the installation.
v Tier 2 customer replaceable unit: You may install a Tier 2 CRU yourself or
request IBM to install it, at no additional charge, under the type of warranty
service that is designated for the server.
v Field replaceable unit (FRU): FRUs must be installed only by trained service
technicians.
For a list of replaceable components for the server, see “Replaceable server
