While there are free tools like Event Viewer and paid End Point Analytic tools available to aid this process, organizations continue to grapple with too much noise in the data besides operational issues to implement such solutions given the implementation constraints on the ground,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s look at a probable real-life scenario of incident to problem management along with challenges that IT faces in conducting RCA and executing the identified solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>0 to 12 weeks for moving from Incident to Problem management (PM) \u00e0ITSM reports indicate a trend of up to 25% systems experiencing occasional crashes in the last 12 weeks<\/li><li>12 to 17 weeks for Root Cause Analysis and identifying a Solution \u00e0Problem Management (PM) team rules out low RAM or hard disc as possible causes based on ITAM reports for these impacted machines<br>PM team in 2 weeks catches hold of only 10% of the impacted users to pull out Event viewer logs<br>Log analysis indicates required permissions were missing from some of the component services causing the crashes, read more here<br>A PowerShell script was developed and tested to check necessary registry settings and grant permissions, read more here<\/li><li>17 weeks onwards \u2013&nbsp;<strong>Roadblock&nbsp;<\/strong>while Deploying the fixNon Microsoft signed PS scripts are not allowed in environment so now Engineers have to manually run this as an Administrator on thousands of impacted machines and there is no way to proactively identify from hundreds of thousands of machines (the situation doesn\u2019t improve even if it is just double digit number of machines as the Service Desk time is always constrained)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>After nearly 17 weeks this is not a nice and expected outcome, IT is burn out, Management is not happy and users continue to loose time \/ productivity \u2026.not a desired state to be in!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anakage provides a remediation platform:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>with hundreds of pre-built solutions<\/li><li>that facilitates accelerated Root cause Analysis by a Collector that pulls only the relevant info you need<\/li><li>with a scriptless workflow creator to create new Solutions<\/li><li>and a updater to push your new solutions to end points<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Proactive CoBot\u00a0can reduce 80% of your effort and time to pull out necessary information from logs using CoBot\u2019s collector and then use CoBot\u2019s services to run newly built remediation solutions without requiring Admin privileges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For known issues which require user intervention and which can not be prevented from occuring sporadically, Anakage offers Online and Offline CoBots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anakage has consistently reduced upto 50% of the incidents at source at reduced prices from competition, thus creating <a href=\"https:\/\/nazing.co.uk\/\">stronger <\/a>business outcomes for clients and partners.
