Selling your machine to another company

If you are selling your machine to a third party, you must remove all CoD records on the machine, including CBU and CPE records, prior to uninstalling the machine and transferring it to the new owner.

  • Deactivate any active CoD records
  • Delete any installed CoD records
  • Delete any staged CoD records
  • Remove the CoD features
  • Transmit or upload vital product data (VPD) to IBM®.

You no longer need the machine's CIU machine profile on Resource Link®. Disable the machine profile to remove it from your list of active machine profiles. See Disabling a machine profile.
