Abstract: A method to securely collect diagnostic information from an IT product is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method includes contacting, by an IT product, an external service provider. Upon contacting the external service provider, the IT product checks a database of the external service provider to determine if diagnostic information associated with the IT product needs to be collected. If diagnostic information needs to be collected, an authorization request is sent to an administrator of the IT product. If the authorization request is approved, the IT product collects the diagnostic information and transmits the diagnostic information to the external service provider. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.

Abstract: For deploying a validated data storage deployment is disclosed, a processor generates one or more desired data storage parameters for a data storage deployment. The data storage parameters identify data storage hardware and corresponding software prerequisites, an operating system, and drivers. In addition, the processor identifies a first validated data storage deployment that has a greatest number of the desired data storage parameters of the validated data storage deployments from the data storage parameter repository. In response to identifying the first validated data storage deployment, the processor deploys the validated data storage deployment at a data storage system by activating the data storage hardware and installing the software prerequisites, the operating system, and the drivers of the first validated data storage deployment on the data storage hardware at the data storage system via a network.
