How long will it take to replace my server

Tracs Computer has servers in stock for immediate replacement. We know that if a server fails it needs to be replaced immediately. We advise customers to plan to replace an aging server before it fails. Replacing a network server requires a site survey and is treated as a project. A small file and print server can be deployed in an afternoon. If you have a domain with multiple servers and locations it can take days.  Every business has different requirements and we respect each customers needs. We would be pleased to meet with you and provide a detailed quote. We guarantee that we will deliver the best value for your needs.

Here is a brief list of questions that will need to be considered:

What is the existing operating system and server roles?

What applications are being hosted on the server?

Will this server be hosting other server apps in a virtual environment?

How many users and devices are attached to the server?

How much data will need to be moved to the new server?

How many other servers are on the network?

Are you upgrading to a newer operating system and adding applications?

Will user applications need to be updated or installed as well?

Will new network switches, routers and infrastructure be required?
