Basic Server Management
Hardware failures
We provide 100% hardware replacement SLA for the server for life. In case of any hardware failure, QualiSpace will provide replacement hardware free of cost. The hardware replacement guarantee is 4 hours which means the failed hardware will be replaced with a new one within 4 hours from the time of diagnosing the exact hardware issue. In case of a failure of some hardware component like Hard drive or RAM or power supply, we replace the same with new ones. In case of multiple hardware failures, we replace the old server with a new server. The customers are expected to have a complete backup of the server data to avoid any case of loss of data resulting due to the hardware failure. In the case of where customer has opted for R1Soft CDP backup, our backup specialist will help customer to restore the data back to the new server.
Network related issues
We guarantee up to 99.9% Network uptime SLA and any downtime more than the 0.1% during the month will be credited to the customer subject to the claim received by the customer. However, this credit does not apply in case of downtime due to unavoidable events like Act of God, war, riots etc. Also, SLA Credit is not available to Customers deemed in “Poor Standing”, as defined in the QualiSpace Master Services Agreement. The Network issues are limited only to the router and the switch used for the server. It does not include issue with the NIC of the server or incorrect duplexing set by the Customer in the NIC of the server.
Security Updates and Patch Management
We install all the latest security patches for the operating system and other software as and when available. We send an email to the Customers to confirm the schedule for the installation of patches and updates. It is recommended to install the patches as soon as they are released since the vulnerabilities found can be exploited by hackers to gain access to the servers.
Ping Monitoring
We provide free Ping Monitoring service for the server. The server is pinged every 5 minutes by our Monitoring system and an alert is sent to the customer whenever there is a downtime or connectivity issue.
Free One week System Admin help
We provide free one week System Admin help for your dedicated server to ensure you can smoothly put your server for production use. The one week system admin help is valid only for the first week from the date of the server delivery. You can opt for the free system admin help to setup the QualiSpace supported software in the server to prepare the server for production.
One hour walk through of the server
Upon the delivery of the server, the customer gets a call from one of the L3 engineers to schedule a walkthrough of the server. According to the agreed schedule, the L3 engineer provides information about the server and information of how to manage basic tasks in the server. This helps the customer to ensure he gets well acquainted with the server and does not have to rely on QualiSpace at latter stages while bringing the server into production use.
Monthly Server Performance Report
We provide monthly server performance report for your dedicated server(s). This report includes the server uptime for the month and the total data transfer utilized by the server. This report can help you to plan any further upgrades whenever necessary. This report also makes sure that you know the health of the server and have peace of mind.
