[AusNOG] IBM XSeries Remote Management Module Advanced Upgrade - urgently needed

[Kathy Shannon]

Hi

Thanks to everyone who replied and tried to help.  For anyone else that may
have the same issue with the time delay after much searcing I found you can
have a trial key for 90 days which you then delete once you have your full
key.

To obtain a trial key log into http://ibm.com/systems/x/fod with your IBM
ID and on the left menu select Trial Key. Then just enter the machine
details and the key will be emailed to you straight away.

Once again thanks to all who replied!

Kathy
