Common On-Site Support Inquiries
On-site engineers are crucial for managing and resolving a variety of IT hardware issues that cannot be effectively addressed remotely. Here are some common problems that would typically require the presence of an onsite engineer:
Hardware Failures: Critical hardware components like hard drives, power supplies, and motherboards can fail and often require physical replacement or repairs that an onsite engineer needs to handle.
Server Issues: Problems such as server crashes, hardware malfunctions, or upgrades that involve adding memory or swapping out discs often necessitate onsite intervention to minimise downtime and ensure proper configuration.
Networking Problems: Issues like failed switches, router configurations, or cable malfunctions can disrupt local networks. Onsite engineers are needed to physically inspect, diagnose, and resolve such problems.
Physical Installations and Setup: Setting up new workstations, servers, network equipment, and other hardware components typically requires an onsite engineer to ensure everything is installed and configured according to specific operational standards.
Data Centre Maintenance: Regular maintenance or emergency repairs within data centres, including replacing components in high-density setups, require skilled engineers who can work effectively in these critical environments.
Software Problems with Hardware Implications: Certain software issues may require hardware adjustments or firmware updates that need to be applied directly through onsite support.
Preventative Maintenance and Inspections: Regular maintenance, including cleaning of critical components like fans, checking and tightening connectors, and physical inspections, are best done onsite.
