For this project we are looking for local candidates to the Syracuse area… *Rochester, Utica, Syracuse NY areas only… Please do not send anyone who is more than a 1 hour commute to Syracuse. *Communication skills must be very strong… 9/10. After the initial 6-8 weeks they may have remote options available *.* Please submit one (1) candidate and make sure that you include: Full Name, Rate, Location, Work Authorization and Contact Number for all candidate submitted! End Client: Xerox Job Title: AS/400/ iSeries Systems Administrator Start Date: asap Duration: 3-6 months Location: Syracuse, NY *Overview of the project:* Our client based in Syracuse, NY is moving an AS/400 from Dallas to Syracuse in the early July time frame. As they have no staff there now to manage it. Ideal candidates will need to have AS/400 skills (don’t need to program anything) just to be on-site in Syracuse, 40 hrs per week ranging from 3 months up a few more if needed. They will ideally need someone onsite initially to meet the team. Once they are comfortable there is a possibility of finishing the rest of the work remotely. *Duties:* · Monitoring, Administration and Management of up to 6 LPARs · System Administration to include OS upgrades when required, PTFs, Performance Tuning and Capacity Planning, HA etc… · Operations Support – Console Monitoring · Backup Management *Some questions and answers about the project…* *1. **Are we talking about one or more physical boxes? * Answer: One physical p770, 6 LPARs, all internal storage. *1. **Are the 6 LPARS up and running at this time? * Answer: 1` LPAR is for Test/Dev so not critical. The other 5 run property record applications for town/county/city governments so need to be up during business hours. Off hours not as critical, backups done at night. Very stable box running older homegrown applications, not many changes being made. *2. **Do you have a detailed plan of what you are trying to accomplish?* Answer: No detailed plan, just operating /supporting / backing up the box on a daily basis. It has been running in production for 2 years in Dallas where it has been housed and supported by an internal data center, charging my customer’s division substantial money to support it so my customer is moving it to their own facility in Syracuse into a recently renovated data center that currently has no AS/400 skilled support. *3. **And if so, does the plan have step-by-step procedures of… What needs to be done?, How it is going to be done?, Who is going to be responsible for each procedure?, What are the dates this is going to be accomplished?* Answer: Customer is trying to get the server moved to Syracuse over the July 4th weekend, working now to get their data center prepared as far as power, cooling, networking, etc. As far as first three bullets- this can be discussed / negotiated with the customer if they choose to move forward.
