Which meant having to diagnose problems remotely, so that field service engineers can be sent to the customer, or their computer equipment brought in to the workshop for further investigation and repair. My customers are both external and internal within BT/Lynx. Having the responsibility of running calls, from the first customer lead fault report. To its speedy, and successful resolution within the contracted SLA. Including the need to visit customer sites – giving the customers the care and attention they deserve.Typical call would be a drive has failed in an IBM RS6000 (AIX) server. I would diagnose that a drive has failed, interrogate the systems diagnostic software. This often meant talking the customer though the software screens, step by step to find part numbers that are provide by the IBM’s in built SMIT hardware interface. Updating the call database with the relevant details of the conversation, check part availability, liaising with stores, purchasing and the ordering parts. Testing the parts to ensure that they are fit for purpose. Later when the engineer attended site (possibly the same day) talking them through the replacement of the drive and the recovery of data. And finally checks to make sure that nothing was overlooked and that that the customer is satisfied with the delivery of the service.
