What changes at EOSL

The Power S922 (9009-22A) keeps working. IBM just stops answering.

End of service life is the date IBM stops selling support contracts for the Power S922 (9009-22A). It is a commercial decision, not a technical one. The server still runs, its failure modes are well documented, and spares are available on the secondary market.

We keep Power S922 (9009-22A) spares in stock and support the platform for 3 to 5+ years past January 31, 2026 with in-house L3+ engineers 24/7/365, a 4-hour on-site SLA, and month-to-month terms. Most customers use that window to refresh on their own schedule instead of IBM's.

POWER9 first-gen 'A' model; MTM 9009-22A; withdrawn from marketing 2021-01-29; EOS letter AD25-0134; 2020 'G' refresh models (9009-22G/42G) have no IBM EOS date
