I've noticed that the IBM System Director link is broken on the following SolarWinds Resources Page:
https://support.solarwinds.com/?title=Success_Center/Server_%26_Application_Monitor_(SAM)/Latest_required_software_used_to_monitor_hardware_health&CMPSource=THW&CMP=REFDOM
This is the same situation as all other download links I've come across (over 2 dozen from IBM documentation so far, beginning to think that this is not a coincidence). IBM Support resource pages only show upgrades, I would need the original program for all upgrades to work.
I've read in the IBM note below that Systems Director has been removed from marketing as reaching end of life, and download sites have been disabled.

I've put in a bunch of voicemails and emails to IBM and Lenovo (which I was referred by IBM) for download links and quotes, and no reply as of yet. This download is supposed to be free, although I can't trial this for SolarWinds SAM Hardware Health Monitoring. There are a few other forums with this problem but unfortunately no IBM download resource:

Considering purchasing SolarWinds SAM just for server temperature monitoring of our IBM servers, although it looks like this is not possible.
Thank you for your consideration,
