In the process of fixing the problem, hardware or software may need to be replaced, upgraded, reconfigured, etc. Once service is restored, a true root cause must be identified. Root cause is essential to understanding why something happened and how to mitigate it in the future. The analysis of root cause can be complex and can require the re-creation of issues in labs, analysis of logs, repair information, and interacting with development team. Once root cause is identified, procedures are updated and training provided as mitigation. Performing preventative maintenance of hardware, software, and networks. This is accomplished via routine inspection, backup, physical maintenance, etc. We have set procedures to calibrate systems, take measurements, verify operation, and check for redundancy. This is performed by telephone with "Smart Hands", remotely via computers, and in perso Performance Trending and Analysis. The networks maintained by the team are very complex. This results in a multitude of parameters, any of which can cause the performance of the network, hub, or terminal to perform at sub optimal levels. This position is responsible for continuously trending the performance of the overall system and the individual hubs that comprise it. This is done using log files, historical cases, direct observation, test terminals, trending software, and dashboards. Managing Network projects.
