HPE Cluster Extension Solution Implementation Service
HPE Lifecycle Event Services
The HPE Cluster Extension Solution Implementation Service is a required custom data center service, allowing you to tailor the deployment of HPE Cluster Extension Software, the CLX environment for your HPE XP/P9000 and EVA/P6000 and 3PAR storage arrays to address the specific needs of your disaster tolerant solution environment.
This service offers initial consultation with a trained Hewlett Packard Enterprise service specialist to verify that the E2E solution components for the CLX platform are properly installed and configured. This service may be expanded through the custom Statement of Work (SOW), to include hardware installation, cluster configuration, CLX solution testing, CLX dependency SW installation and configuration and associated documentation. To address the needs of your business, your customized SOW may also expand to include a documented design plan, which may encompass project management, design activities, tailored implementation, testing, and an orientation session.
A Hewlett Packard Enterprise service specialist will engage with you in a discovery process designed to help Hewlett Packard Enterprise understand your business and storage application needs. This collaboration provides the groundwork to plan, design, and employ the required Cluster Extension Solution configuration for your HPE disaster tolerant environment.
