YOUR FIVE STEPS TO DECOMMISSION A DATA CENTER

You know that your data center needs to be overhauled, and the job done right.
It’s a matter of security, efficiency, and some complexity. You want to ensure
that you cover every detail and avoid possible pitfalls while saving your
company time and money. That's where having steps to decommission a data center
can help.






With them, you can stay ahead of schedule and project pain. Without them, you
might find yourself wondering if this is too complex a job for you or your
contractors. So, let’s jump in with our first steps to decommission a data
center.






What are the first steps to decommission a data center?



The first step of planning out and powering down gives you a clean slate. It
eliminates the working component of data centers that often make them unwieldy
and complicated. And, if it’s done right, it will involve backing up and
securing all of your data and software licenses.



For example, our data center decommissioning checklist gives individual steps to
inventory, backup, and disconnect. The checklist helps as a reminder; it tells
you what to do as you plan out and power down.






Three Repeatable Steps: Recovery, Refurbishment, and Reselling



The three steps that follow your power down are the bread and butter of
decommissioning. It is during these crucial steps that project managers and
contractors secure ROI. It means the value of your data center is rediscovered
and recovered through refurbishing and reselling assets. When done with
expertise, it will involve securely wiping drives and enjoying a return on your
investment.






For instance, our data center decommissioning checklist describes the process of
recovery, refurbishment, and reselling. You remove servers, wipe contents, and
create value. The checklist may help to remind you to focus on developing ROI as
you take steps to decommission a data center.






Final Process: Coordination and Conclusion Your personal steps to decommission a
data center will be as unique as your site. Whatever steps you follow, they
should aim themselves at your goal to save time, conserve resources, and get a
return. The final steps, once you have rediscovered the value of your assets, is
to log information for audits and prevent damage during relocation.



The final process in our data center decommissioning checklist includes
coordination and conclusion. It’s a final step that aims to get you a check
after your decom. Basically, it involves logging, packing, and updating your
finance department. That means you tell your company about your success. Where
