Hi.
I have never posted here before, normally because someone has asked the question before and been given an answer.
This time I don’t know what to search for !!
I have a large computer room containing all compaq servers covering everything you could imagine from F/P to application servers.
We now are paying quite a lot to cover these servers as they are over 3 years old. I have been tasked with:
1) Identify how old the server is.
2) Identify how much in maintanance its costing.
3) Project its lifespan. for example disk space requirements.
I then need to create a server refresh timeline of when I expect its costing us too much money vs buying a new server with warranty.
Does anyone know what this process is called ?
Can anyone point me in the right direction
