In the event of a failure or system abnormality, we provide an initial investigation to check the current situation in a Data Center, physically present at the customer's rack, to help them isolate the cause, or further support them to recover from the failure.
An option is available to have you check the situation on-site through a camera server.

(2)Maintenance of the hardware layer, as well as hardware recovery in the event of a hardware failure
Recommended for customers who want to outsource incident response, including investigation of individual incident status and incident recovery support.
IDCF engineers remotely log in to your devices to investigate the situation, examine countermeasures, and support establishing recovery plans. Once the normality is restored, the established procedures are documented to be used to respond promptly to an identical incident.
Using the manufacturer's hardware maintenance and hardware failure detection function, we can also work with the manufacturer to provide hardware recovery work within the Data Center in the event of a hardware failure.
