Server Migration in Dublin
Equinix DB2 - Dublin, Kilcarbery stands on Kilcarbery Business Park in Dublin. Reboot Monkey is a third-party datacenter services operator. It does not own or run the data centres where it works, and it is not a hosting company. A migration is therefore a physical project carried out inside a building that belongs to someone else. The destination can be a different rack in the same hall, a different room, or a different facility altogether, and the plan for the move is built around that destination. The request starts with a description of what has to move: which equipment, where it sits today and where it has to land. From that description Reboot Monkey scopes the job, names the engineer for the site and a second briefed engineer as backup, and returns a quote. Prices are quoted on request and depend on the customer and the size of the job.

Our Server Migration Services
Server migration covers moving equipment between racks, rooms or facilities. In practice the work divides into the stages of a physical move, and each stage has a named owner in the project plan.
- Planning: the equipment list, source and destination positions, and the order in which systems are moved.
- Disconnection: powering down and removing cabling from the equipment at the source.
- Transport and installation: moving the hardware and mounting it in the destination rack.
- Reconnection and patching: cabling the equipment in the destination rack, including patching for network connectivity.
- Testing: checking that the equipment is reachable and working after the move.
Why Reboot Monkey
Reboot Monkey can run the whole physical move or work alongside the customer's own team. Who disconnects, reconnects and tests the equipment is agreed per project, so a customer that wants to keep its own administrators on the systems can do so, and a customer that wants the move handled end to end can hand it over. When a migration changes the network path, Reboot Monkey sells the network for the rack as well. It orders the cross connects and carrier circuits from the facility operator and the carriers present in the facility, and Reboot Monkey engineers install and patch the cabling in the customer's rack. The circuits for the new position can therefore be arranged in the same project as the move. A migration that needs new hardware at the destination can be combined with rack and stack, which covers installing, mounting and cabling new hardware. When retired equipment is left behind at the source, data center decommissioning covers removing and disposing of it. Once the equipment is running in its new position, hardware monitoring by the Reboot Monkey NOC can watch the customer's servers and network equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does server migration cover in Dublin?
Server migration covers moving equipment between racks, rooms or facilities. In Dublin, Reboot Monkey engineers carry out the physical move under the facility operator's site rules. Reboot Monkey can run the whole move or work alongside the customer's own team, and who disconnects, reconnects and tests the equipment is agreed per project.
Do you work in every datacenter in Dublin?
Reboot Monkey engineers work in any facility in Dublin where the customer has equipment and access, under the operator's own access and safety rules. The customer adds the engineers to the facility's access list before the first visit.
How fast can Reboot Monkey respond in Dublin?
Incidents and unplanned requests are handled under a 1-hour, around-the-clock incident response SLA. There is also a 15 minute premium response available where technicians are stationed on-site, as a paid add-on. On-site, dispatch and resolution times, priority tiers, and planned or scheduled work are agreed per site in the service agreement.
How is Reboot Monkey different from the facility operator's own staff?
Facility operators' own technicians work for the building. Reboot Monkey engineers work for the customer: they are independent from facility operators (not Equinix SmartHands, not NTT staff), follow the customer's instructions, and the same team can cover several buildings in the city under one agreement.
How do I get started with server migration in Dublin?
Send the site, the equipment and the task through the contact form. Reboot Monkey replies with a quote and an engineer plan for that facility. Once agreed, the customer adds the engineers to the facility's access list and the server migration work is scheduled under the operator's rules.
