Data Center Access Policies
Policies & Best Practices Can Vary By Enterprise But Have Many Common Elements - Processor.com
Peter Sacco, president of PTS Data Center Solutions (www.ptsdcs.com), also
likes to add a form of two-factor authentication to entry points by coupling a card reader ("something you have")
with a PIN pad ("something you know"), which reduces the risks of lost cards. Like Stahl, Sacco recommends
using time-stamped video surveillance in conjunction with electronic access logs, but he also suggests adding a
sign-in sheet to provide a paper trail.

Power & Cooling Maintenance
Better Maintenance Now Means Less Downtime & Lower Costs Later
"Performing preventative maintenance will reduce the frequency and duration of unscheduled downtime,
therefore increasing the availability of the data center," says Michael Petrino, vice president of PTS Data
Center Solutions (www.ptsdcs.com).
"Regular maintenance will increase the reliability and life span
of power and cooling equipment."

Server Maintenance Inside & Out
Keep Servers Up & Running With A Few Simple Tasks
When it comes to maintaining equipment, data center admins should take a cue from the
Boy Scouts' motto: Be prepared. This means having a plan and a set schedule and following them.
"Create a maintenance schedule and stick to it," advises Michael Petrino, vice president of PTS
Data Center Solutions (www.ptsdcs.com). Instituting a regular maintenance schedule can also be
as simple as creating a spreadsheet listing all areas of maintenance.

This Old Data Center
Overcome Problems In Aging Facilities - Processor.com
PTS Data Center Solutions' Vice President Michael Petrino was quoted in on the issue of managing aging data centers.
"Most buildings are one third or one half of the capacity we need," says Michael Petrino, vice president for PTS Data Center
solutions (www.ptsdcs.com).
"We may need 250 pounds per square foot, whereas the floor may be rated for 100 pounds per square foot."
He suggests adding a reinforced under-floor, dispersing the weight to ensure no one area is too heavy, or putting a lower weight limit on
the racks so they don't get overloaded.
