Checking the Maintained Computer Systems:
Note: The trainee/students had undergone and passed the previous
Learning Outcomes. This learning outcome is just a checklist assuring
that you can properly inspect and test the configured/repaired computer
system and networks.

The effectiveness of checking maintained computers depends on the


quality of inspection.

A quality inspection of computer systems must include the following:

1. Powering On the Computer


2. Testing all the computers’ devices
3. Check if all the devices are working properly
Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse.
4. Checking the computers’ performance
5. Check if the computer is performing at its best
6. Inspecting the cables attached on the computer
7. Check if the Cables are fixed properly
8. Power Cables
9. LAN Cables
10. USB Cables
11. Monitor Cables

Reasons for Running Computer to Computer Communications:

The effectiveness of running computers to computer communications is to


make sure that the computers in a network is connected properly for
effective and easier sharing files and information. A quality inspection of
computer communications must include the following:

Pinging - The ping command is the basic tool for testing TCP/IP
connectivity. It sends a special packet (called ICMP Echo) to a particular IP
address and looks for a reply.

Determining TCP/IP Settings - TCP/IP settings that are used in network


settings are:
IP Address – Unique address assigned to a network adapter. A computer
with multiple network adapters has an IP address for each one, and each
one must be in a different subnet.

Subnet Mask – Used in conjunction with the IP address to determine


which subnet an adapter belongs to.
Default Gateway - IP address of a computer or router, on one of this
computer’s local area networks, that knows how to communicate with
subnets not present on this computer.

DHCP Server – If an adapter is configured to obtain an IP address


automatically, this is the address of the server that provides it.

DNS Servers – IP address of one or more Domain Name Server computers.

Burn In - To run a system or device for a period of time to ensure that all
components are working properly.

- The intention is to detect those particular components that would fail as


a result of the initial, high-failure rate portion of the bathtub curve of
component reliability. If the burn-in period is made sufficiently long (and,
perhaps, artificially stressful), the system can then be trusted to be mostly
free of further early failures once the burn-in process is complete.

Bathtub Curve - An equipment failure-rate curve with an initial sharply


declining failure rate, followed by a prolonged constant-average failure
rate, after which the failure rate again increases sharply.

REPORT -Is a piece of information describing, or an account of certain


events given or presented to someone.

Importance of Making a Report -It enables you to practice your skills of


presentation, argument, evaluation, and calculation, and provides a
permanent record of your work.
