What we do when we build systems

• Vblock System Physical Build – What equipment is used in system – How equipment is racked in system

• Base Logical Build – What software is used on system components – How software base configuration is deployed – How equipment is connected in system

• Logical Build Customization – How the systems advanced configuration is

implemented for customer standards/requirements – How the systems advanced configuration is

optimized for customer application/workload Vblock System Physical Build
