Description

HPE H55VTA4#ZTP SN8700B Software Blade Support

Overview

The HPE H55VTA4#ZTP is a 1-year software support entitlement for the HPE HC 250 Hyper Converged system running VMware vSphere — specifically covering SN8700B 48-port, 64GB configurations. This is not a hardware component; it is a software support contract add-on that keeps your HC 250 deployment covered for OS-level updates, software defect resolution, and access to HPE's support resources for the vSphere-integrated hyperconverged stack. If your HC 250 nodes run VMware vSphere and you need to maintain support continuity on the software layer independently of hardware warranty, this SKU fills that gap. The HC 250 platform scales from 2 to 4 identical nodes per chassis, supports Intel Xeon E5-2600 v3/v4 processors, and is designed for 2U per system chassis rack deployment — the H55VTA4#ZTP software support applies across that node range for the covered software components.

Compatibility

This support entitlement is scoped to the HPE HC 250 Hyper Converged platform operating under VMware vSphere. It covers systems built on the SN8700B 48-port, 64GB blade configuration. The HC 250 is compatible with 2-, 3-, or 4-node deployments, each node carrying up to 512GB DDR4 RAM and connected via 10GbE SFP+ or 1GbE RJ-45 primary network ports. Microsoft Hyper-V is also listed as a supported virtualization platform on HC 250 hardware, but confirm with HPE whether this specific support SKU extends to Hyper-V environments or is strictly vSphere-scoped before purchasing. Interface connectivity on the underlying platform is Ethernet. This entitlement is structured for a 9x5 support window — not 24x7 — which matters for environments with strict uptime SLAs that may require a higher-tier support contract instead.

Installation Notes

No physical installation is required. Entitlement activation is handled through HPE's support portal. Ensure the HC 250 system's serial number and existing warranty or support contract details are on hand before activating. Verify that the support term start date aligns with your existing hardware support coverage to avoid gaps — misaligned start dates on software vs. hardware support are a common deployment oversight on hyperconverged platforms.
