The 'discontinued server page' listed below shows that the rp2400, 2470, 7400, 7410, and 8400 have been discontinued/retired. Is there a link which shows when hardware support will be stopped? HP has provided a link for the 3000's and I'm looking for a similiar link for the 9000's.
Thanks in advance,
Chuck Ciesinski

Anectodal. They do seem to be pushing Itanium though.

Re: Hardware support after end of sales?
I'm still concerned since all of these have HP3000 equivalents and HP is stopping support on 12/31/2006 for those systems. I'm wondering if HP will have any problems supporting one and not the other?

Re: Hardware support after end of sales?
http://www.hp.com/products1/evolution/e3000/info_library/faqs.html
Basically states:
How long will the converted HP 9000 rp2400 series and rp7400/N-Class servers be supported?
These models have various end-of-support dates. For the HP 9000 rp2400 series the end of support dates range from 2007-2010, and for the rp7400 servers the end of support dates range from 2007-2008.
Although the hardware conversion kits will be available through 2006, customers who expect to convert in the 2006 timeframe may want to instead take advantage of the aggressive rebates available with the Trade-up Program. This program provides an easy, inexpensive way for customers with older servers to attain the benefits of being on the latest HP-UX server technology.

Re: Hardware support after end of sales?
But, to address you last concern, I think b/c you're on the 3000 platform - you're at greater risk - IF the information about different firmware is true.
Might want to consider buying some spare servers from a used computer dealer to keep in a supply closet for parts replacement if you're not going to be off of those servers long. Whole servers like what you've got should be cheap enough right now, unless you've got a mini-dome, but I don't think that those units made it to the 3000 line.

Re: Hardware support after end of sales?
rp8400: 2010-01-31
rp7410: 2010-01-31
rp7400: 2008-12-31
rp2470: 2010-01-31
rp2400: 2007-10-31
Note that the rp8400, rp7410, and rp2470 are still being sold remarketed (like-new with warranty) currently, and generally HP's policy is to support any system that they sell for a minimum of 5 years after they sell the last ones.
