To maintain Scalar tape libraries

Siemens Computers is further extending its services portfolio:
effective immediately, the company will begin offering customers
servicing for Quantum Scalar i500, Scalar i2000 and Scalar 10k tape
libraries.
Customers purchasing these tape libraries from Fujitsu
Siemens Computers or from the company’s channel partners can now obtain
equipment installation and maintenance services from the same source.
Using the tape libraries along with Fujitsu Siemens Computers’ servers
or CentricStor virtual tape solutions will save time and money because
customers will only need a single point of contact for their entire
solution. A recently signed Authorized Service Partner (ASP) agreement
with Quantum has enabled Fujitsu Siemens Computers to make this
addition to its services portfolio.
"The
service partner agreement not only strengthens our long and successful
relationship with Quantum, it marks a valuable addition to our
portfolio of services,” says Dr. Helmut Beck, Vice President Storage,
Fujitsu Siemens Computers. “Many customers who use our CentricStor
virtual tape solutions also have Scalar tape libraries from Quantum. We
can now offer them a single, central point of contact for their entire
solution, making CentricStor even more efficient and convenient for
users."
