What data does a data centre technician need to get before starting work?
We need the following information to perform our work efficiently and to access a remote server on the territory of a third-party data centre:
- The name of the data centre located in Frankfurt am Main.
- An application on your behalf to provide access to the hardware, based on which we will forward the contacts of our technical specialists to issue permits. Although this procedure may differ from data centre to data centre, in practice we have always gained access to the data centre where the client’s hardware is located.
- Hardware coordinates: rack number, unit number and ID of the hardware itself.
- An exact description of the work to be performed in the data centre.
- Preferred time for work to be performed (day, date, time) and an indication of how urgent it is.
Only after receiving this information, will we be able to process your request and agree on performing work in a remote data centre, as well as communicate the name and surname of the technician who will be assigned the task.
