Maintenance Services Computer networks, like any other mechanical device require regular maintenance to ensure they continue to operate at their optimum. Generally, this task takes no longer than 2 hours per server, per month to perform and is a valuable tool in ensuring that potential issues are identified and addressed prior to becoming work prohibitive. Whilst every network is different and will develop and implement a monthly maintenance procedure specific to your requirements, as a starting point a monthly maintenance will consist of the following standard tasks: Backup logs checked and cleared Trial restore performed to verify backup integrity System event or error logs checked and cleared Events arising from system event or error logs investigated Temporary files cleared Disk space & Disk compression ratios checked System resources checked and recorded, including CPU usage, Memory Usage, paging,  Network usage, etc Server disks scanned for viruses including macro viruses Update virus definitions on Workstations Issues surrounding either server or client performance addressed All of the above events documented and included in a monthly report (optional) The Monthly maintenance is procedural and all tasks performed and results are logged in your account on our web based helpdesk, this ensures that we do not indivertible miss a particular task, but more importantly it creates a historical record of the performance of the entire system. A PRO IT consultant will be happy to provide further details and show you through the Monthly Maintenance procedure.
