The HP Integrating and Managing HP BladeSystem in the Enterprise (exam code HP0-S17) is the exam you pass to earn the HP Certified Professional - BladeSystem Integration certification, a credential at the Professional level. It is also connected with related credentials such as HP Certification I, HP BladeSystem Solutions Expert. If you are mapping out a certification path with HP, this exam is a milestone worth planning around.

The HP0-S17 exam includes 130-190 questions, and you have 120-150 to complete them. With that many questions on the clock, pacing is part of the challenge: divide your time into rough blocks as you go, and flag the items that stall you so you can circle back at the end instead of burning minutes on a single question. A week or two before your exam date, sit at least one full timed session in the Prep4SureReview test engine under the same time limit, so the pace feels familiar rather than frantic on the day.

You need 70-75% to pass the HP0-S17 exam, and the official registration fee is USD 150-200. That fee is due again in full for every retake, which makes thorough preparation the cheaper investment by far. Before you book your seat, test yourself with the Prep4SureReview practice questions until you are scoring comfortably above the passing mark on a consistent basis — it is the simplest way to avoid paying for the same exam twice.
