A7004760 (Update Access Code Exipiration) not Visible

SRC Code A7004760 'count down to Update Access Code expiration' not logged as a service event; warning notification not delivered to administrator's defined under 'Manage Serviceable Event Notification' users. Administrators only notified after A7004761 posts (update access code expired). While the SRC is posted on the HMC panel 'Systems Management > Servers', administrators should not have to log onto the HMC and chase the A7004760 warning message. Ideally a mechanism to send the notification to the predefined list of recipients for administrative events is in place. Additional PMR's for reference: RE: McKesson PMR(s) 90622,227,000 / 90624,227,000 - SRCA7004761: SRCA7004760 Not Received

    Hi,

    There is an option available in the HMC to automatically renew the update access keys by enabling Update access key information under Transmit Service Information. Please let us know if this would solve the problem reported in this case.

    Thanks.
