IBM's computer systems contain mechanisms designed to reduce the possibility of undetected data

corruption or loss. This risk, however, cannot be eliminated. Users who experience unplanned outages,

system failures, power fluctuations or outages, or component failures must verify the accuracy of

operations performed and data saved or transmitted by the system at or near the time of the outage or

failure. In addition, users must establish procedures to ensure that there is independent data verification

before relying on such data in sensitive or critical operations. Users should periodically check IBM's

support websites for updated information and fixes applicable to the system and related software.

Accessibility features for IBM Power Systems servers

Accessibility features assist users who have a disability, such as restricted mobility or limited vision, to

use information technology content successfully.

Overview
The IBM Power Systems servers include the following major accessibility features:
• Keyboard-only operation
• Operations that use a screen reader
The IBM Power Systems servers use the latest W3C Standard, WAI-ARIA 1.0 (www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/),

to ensure compliance with US Section 508 (www.access-board.gov/guidelines-and-standards/

communications-and-it/about-the-section-508-standards/section-508-standards) and Web Content

Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 (www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20/). To take advantage of accessibility

features, use the latest release of your screen reader and the latest web browser that is supported by the

IBM Power Systems servers.
The IBM Power Systems servers online product documentation in IBM Knowledge Center is enabled for

accessibility. The accessibility features of IBM Knowledge Center are described in the Accessibility

section of the IBM Knowledge Center help (www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/doc/

kc_help.html#accessibility).

Keyboard navigation
This product uses standard navigation keys.

Interface information
The IBM Power Systems servers user interfaces do not have content that flashes 2 - 55 times per second.
The IBM Power Systems servers web user interface relies on cascading style sheets to render content

properly and to provide a usable experience. The application provides an equivalent way for low-vision

users to use system display settings, including high-contrast mode. You can control font size by using the

device or web browser settings.
The IBM Power Systems servers web user interface includes WAI-ARIA navigational landmarks that you

can use to quickly navigate to functional areas in the application.
