In order to get support from IBM Rational Client Support, you need a valid support agreement. To verify your entitlement of support, IBM is using the ICN (IBM Customer Number). The ICN is always required when logging a support request.
You can get your company’s ICN from the person who is registered as the primary contact at IBM of your Passport Advantage agreement.
Overview of IBM Rational Client Support:
Support requests are called PMRs (Problem Management Records)
- When opening a new support request, a PMR number will be provided
- Always state this PMR number in further communications with IBM Rational Support
- Requests which contain multiple issues will be split into individual PMRs
Product defects are tracked using APARs (Authorized Problem Analysis Reports)
- If a product defect is identified, an APAR number will be provided
- The numbers of the fixed APARs are listed in the release notes of updates and upgrades
