Your customer is acquiring a new HPE Alletra 9000 Fibre Channel array and wishes to utilize it with their existing Fibre Channel switches.
Which resource should you use to determine whether the switches are compatible?
You need to determine whether there is resource contention between VMs in an HPE Hyper-V environment.
Which tool should you use?
Your customer required a managed private cloud solution of which they can retain ownership for tax purposes.
Which delivery model should you recommend?
Answer : B
A managed private cloud solution is one where the customer has a dedicated cloud environment that is managed by a third-party provider. The customer can benefit from the scalability, flexibility, and security of the cloud, without having to deal with the infrastructure management and maintenance. However, the customer may also have specific requirements for ownership and tax purposes, such as retaining the title of the assets or depreciating them over time. In this case, a traditional purchase or a custom HPE GreenLake solution may not be suitable, as they would either require the customer to pay upfront for the infrastructure or transfer the ownership to HPE. HPE GreenLake for VDI is also not a good option, as it is a specific solution for virtual desktops, not a general-purpose cloud platform.
Your customer has requested a proof of concept.
What should be included in your agreement with the customer? (Choose two.)
Answer : B, C
Success criteria: This is a set of measurable and achievable outcomes that indicate the POC has met the customer's requirements and expectations. It should be aligned with the customer's business goals and pain points, and reflect the key benefits and differentiators of the solution. For example, the success criteria could be based on performance, scalability, availability, security, cost, or user satisfaction metrics.
Estimated timeline: This is a realistic and agreed-upon schedule for the POC, including the start and end dates, milestones, deliverables, and feedback sessions. It should account for the time needed for planning, preparation, installation, configuration, testing, validation, and evaluation of the solution. It should also specify the duration and terms of the POC, such as the number of users, devices, or data involved, and the ownership and disposition of the equipment and software after the POC.
The other options are not essential for a POC agreement. A production bill of materials is a list of the components and quantities needed for the final deployment of the solution, which is not relevant for a POC. A production site survey is an assessment of the physical and environmental conditions of the customer's site, which may not be necessary for a POC, especially if it is conducted remotely or in a lab. A 24/7 support is a service level agreement that guarantees the availability and responsiveness of the technical support team, which may not be feasible or required for a POC.Reference:

How to Run a Successful Proof of Concept
You have designed an HPE Synergy solution for a customer site. The customer wants to use this solution design as a blueprint to implement the same solution in 200 locations. They want to minimize cost for installation and configuration and therefore plan to order everything Factory pre-installed and pre-configured.
Which HPE tool can you use to document the customer requirements and attach them to the order?
Your customer would like to adopt a pay-per-use consumption model with GreenLake for Private Cloud Enterprise.
Which important factor should you share with them?
