Many large organizations have legacy servers which have been in service for over 10 years, and no one is left with the expertise to fix problems when they occur. Near the end of their service lives, these servers will require support sooner or later.

SCO or System V or SCO OpenServer Custom Server Tech Support - Ontario

print this article 
 

Whether the UNIX is SCO, System V, or some other UNIX variant, there are usually a number of problems to overcome:

  • the server contains hardware that is both old and specialized
  • the specifications (exact purpose) of this server are missing
  • the source code is unavailable
  • the original person who supported it is long gone
  • drivers are custom-built for an old kernel which is no longer distributed
  • the operating system is based on UNIX and all internal tech support staff is skilled in Windows
  • the server may not have a functioning ethernet card, and furthermore, the kernel is so old that it might not support modern ethernet cards
  • some critical system depends on the proper functioning of this server
Sample Assignments:
  • Solve printer problems on SCO OpenServer
  • Update routing and IP addresses on SCO
  • Troubleshoot old legacy software
  • Troubleshoot database problems, including Sybase databases
