Cisco Server Maintenance

Extend your hardware asset life-cycle with a third-party maintenance strategy.

Overview

Curvature’s support for the Cisco UCS Blade and Rackmount Servers includes full hardware break/fix support spanning the original Cisco UCS lineup through the M4 series products. This service is for hardware maintenance of Cisco UCS Blade and Rackmount Servers and does not include support for Fabric Interconnects, which are better suited under the manufacturer’s SmartNet® support.

Our data center support model and capabilities provide our customers with an enhanced service delivery experience and our singlePoint® asset/contract management tool, plus our multi-vendor concierge desk makes service management easy.

Can you provide firmware updates?

No. Firmware is the intellectual property of the manufacturer. We will gladly perform a ClearView analysis of an estate to identify risks so customers can determine if firmware updates are needed. Firmware for Cisco UCS Blade and Rack servers is not limited to those which are legally licensed. SmartNet is required for Fabric Interconnects due to licensing. Using the risk-free ClearView assessment, Curvature will recommend the best strategy for your environment.

Are your parts manufacturer-certified?

Yes. We utilize original parts with manufacturer models and firmware. We do not alter or replace parts with non-original components.

Do you stock parts locally?

Yes. Our service centers are stocking locations where we stock high-failure components locally.

What does your four-hour onsite response include?

Our onsite response service level includes a qualified field engineer with the appropriate tools to begin remediation.

Do you support servers during the warranty period? And is there a price break?

Yes. If it is a product we support, then the warranty status does not matter. We have an aggressive pricing structure — 50% lower.

What will I lose by leaving the manufacturer and signing with Curvature?

Nothing.
