   Bare Metal Servers SLA
   1. Deployment
      1. Server Deployment Guarantee.
         In most cases Corporate Network Solutions is able to deploy Client’s new server within 4 hours, provided Client’s order does not contain any special instructions, require MSSQL installation, or need an on-board RAID configuration. For all orders, regardless of configuration, Corporate Network Solutions guarantees a server deployment of 24 hours, beginning once Client’s order has been paid for and verified.
      2. Compensation
         If Corporate Network Solutions misses their goal, Corporate Network Solutions will give Client a 10% credit of service cost toward Client’s first month’s hosting service fees. All Client have to do is notify us within 7 days that Corporate Network Solutions missed the goal and that Client wishes to claim this credit.
   2. Network
      1. Network Downtime Definition.
         Network Downtime occurs when Client’s server cannot transmit or receive data to/from the Internet due to the failure of network equipment managed and owned by Corporate Network Solutions.
      2. Network Definition.
         Corporate Network Solutions’s Network consists of all of Corporate Network Solutions’s infrastructure hardware including routers, switches, and cabling but does not include the services or software running on the server or the server’s hardware.
      3. Compensation.
         As compensation for a downtime event, Corporate Network Solutions will credit Client’s account 5% for every 30 minute segment of downtime, up to the total monthly cost.
         Clients are not entitled to a credit if the downtime is caused by:
         1. Actions of the Client or others authorized by Client to use the Service under the Agreement;
         2. The failure of Third Party Service to Corporate Network Solutions’s network;
         3. Application, software, or operating system failure,
         4. The result of network maintenance activity,
         5. Denial of Service attack, hacker activity, or other malicious event or code targeted against Corporate Network Solutions or a Bare Metal Client. Failure of any Network or Internet Infrastructure not owned or managed by Corporate Network Solutions.
      4. Reporting
         Client should report downtime incidents to us via email to support@cnsolutions.com within 3 days of the event’s commencement. Only one event per report, please. Please include the service type, IP Address, and a full description of the service interruption including logs (if applicable). Downtime officially begins at the time Corporate Network Solutions receives the email “ticket” and ends when Corporate Network Solutions has, at its sole discretion, resolved the issue.
      5. Account Status
         If Client is currently behind in payments on Client’s accounts, of has been behind 3 or more times in the preceding 12 months, Client doesn’t qualify for an SLA credit for Downtime. Valid SLA claims can’t be credited if Client has outstanding abuse issues, but once Client’s abuse issues are resolved Corporate Network Solutions will gladly credit all valid claims. Making false or repetitive claims will cost Client $50 per incident and may place Client in violation of account Acceptable Use Policy and Terms and Conditions. Clients engaging in malicious or aggressive Internet activities such as attacks or counter-attacks are in violation of the Acceptable Use Policy and Terms and Conditions.
      6. 20 Minute Support Response Guarantee.
         Corporate Network Solutions guarantees that one of Corporate Network Solutions’s talented professionals will respond to Client’s support tickets or inquiry within 20 minutes of submission. This applies to support tickets emailed to support@cnsolutions.com.
   3. Replacement
      4 Hour Hardware Replacement Guarantee.
      We hate it when things aren’t working. If hardware belonging to us and located within Corporate Network Solutions’s datacenter fails, Corporate Network Solutions will replace it within 4 hours of notification of failure. To report a failure, send an email to support@cnsolutions.com.
   4. Compensation.
      If Corporate Network Solutions doesn’t replace the hardware within 4 hours Corporate Network Solutions will credit Client for one day of Client’s monthly recurring hosting charges. We’ll give Client that same 1 day credit for every four hour block of time beyond the initial 4 hour guarantee until the replacement is complete, up to a total of 100% of Client’s monthly recurring payment if necessary. Client does have to send us an official request for the credit within 7 days of the hardware replacement. Send an email to serversupport@cnsolutions.com to claim the credit.
      The 4 hour hardware replacement guarantee only applies to the replacement of the failed hardware. It takes some time, though, to re-load the operating system and applications and apply any applicable data restorations and backups if necessary, and the time to do that does not count toward the hardware outage. Once the hardware is installed, the hardware failure incident timer is stopped and Client is not entitled to any further SLA credits.

   Bare Metal Cloud (BMC) SLA
   Bare Metal Cloud is a product in Corporate Network Solutions’s Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS). It is intended to provide a solution for modern Infrastructure-as-a-Service business consumers relying on very high levels of automation and often using a DevOps approach to their software development and IT operations procedures.

Bare Metal Cloud platform provides hardware at the end of an API, supporting highly automated workloads, built with cutting edge server technology and on top of a modern high-capacity network. All these components are meant to fulfill the need to deploy infrastructure in a fully automated and pay-as-you-go model. All BMC Edge locations are subject to best effort service restrictions doe to the nature of such location and their accessibility.
