SDDC Decommissioning

Decommissioning is a process that involves the withdrawal of hardware and software from your location.
Your SDDC is withdrawn in the following scenario:
  • Your two-month paid-pilot subscription term ends, and you do not intend to purchase a long-term service.
  • Your 1-year or 3-year subscription term ends, and you do not intend to renew the subscription term.
The decommission services are:
  • The VMware SRE performs a remote soft reset of the infrastructure.
  • A notification is sent to the Dell engineer that the hardware is ready for pickup.
  • The Dell engineer collects the hardware from your location and securely performs a National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-88 data sanitization offsite.
