HPE Recovery Manager Central Integration Service

HPE Technology Consulting

HPE Recovery Manager Central Integration Service is an integrated data protection configuration consultative service for your HPE 3PAR and StoreOnce products. The goal is to help you develop and implement an integration plan utilizing HPE Recovery Manager Central (RMC), a converged availability and backup service that is designed to provide higher-speed backup than traditional backup applications.

HPE Recovery Manager Central Integration Service integrates the RMC application on your HPE 3PAR and StoreOnce system in accordance with HPE best practices, delivering a unified backup-to-disk solution. HPE Technology Services Consulting helps you integrate the solution you need by providing consultative services to develop an integration plan, and then configure and integrate RMC within your data protection environment to help address your backup requirements based on that plan. Your data protection may be further enhanced with customization for synthetic full backups onto HPE StoreOnce. HPE Technology Services Consulting offers this advanced RMC configuration service to help your organization integrate RMC into your backup environment utilizing HPE best practices. This is a fixed-scope, fixed-price service with a delivery that will not exceed one work week (5 business days) for the Level 1 service, or two work weeks (10 business days) for the Level 2 service, as is described later in this document.

Note that HPE Recovery Manager Central Integration Service is a post-installation service; for initial installation, HPE recommends the purchase of HPE Recovery Manager Central Installation and Startup Service.
