This Justification and Approval (J&A) on a brand name only basis is for the use of HP DL380 Servers. The use of a brand name description is essential to the Government?s requirements, Department of State infrastructure commonality, as well as IRM/EOC?s operational requirements, thereby precluding consideration of the products of another company. IRM/OPS/SIO/ESOC has identified that HP DL380 Servers are an integral component of EOC?s ESX Virtual Server Infrastructure. The equipment listed above is required to provide additional Host servers for the ESX infrastructure thereby increasing the capacity of the ESX Host Farms and augmenting the existing backup/restoration and disaster recovery infrastructure within the ESOC?s Virtual Server Architecture. As this is a brand name only justification, no one contractor?s unique qualifications are cited as the basis for this justification. Rather, the products identified by brand name herein have been determined to be the only items that meet the defined requirements as a key component of IRM/OPS/SIO/EOC?s Virtual Server Architecture. ALL INTEMS AND COMPONENTS MUST BE CONFIGURED INTO THE SERVER PRIOR TO SHIPMENT. NO EXCEPTIONS.
