How is it possible to do all these when there is no proper planning or proper equipment? The very concept is misleading. If anybody says any branch, any work in divisional or regional or circle office, is it possible to do like that?

Please first look in to the matter of system administrator...Then go for modernization like CBS...
Without giving proper scale and designation to SAs and taking aLOT of work means drinking the blood of thousands of system administrators and their families....
