Adding Extended Warranty Information

Use the omconfig system extwarranty command to assign values for extended warranty information.

A warranty is a contract between the manufacturer or dealer and the purchaser of a system. The warranty identifies the components that are covered for repair or replacement for a specified length of time or usage. The extended warranty comes into force after the original warranty expires. For details on how to edit warranty values, see "Adding Warranty Information."

Table 5-3 shows the valid parameters for the command.
