The first edition of The Practice of System and Network Administration introduced a generation of system and network administrators to a modern IT methodology. Whether you use Linux, Unix, or Windows, this newly revised edition describes the essential practices previously handed down only from mentor to protégé. This wonderfully lucid, often funny cornucopia of information introduces beginners to advanced frameworks valuable for their entire career, yet is structured to help even the most advanced experts through difficult projects.
The book's four major sections build your knowledge with the foundational elements of system administration. These sections guide you through better techniques for upgrades and change management, catalog best practices for IT services, and explore various management topics. Chapters are divided into The Basics and The Icing. When you get the Basics right it makes every other aspect of the job easier--such as automating the right things first. The Icing sections contain all the powerful things that can be done on top of the basics to wow customers and managers.
The industry standard for best practices in system administration, updated to address today's challenges:
- Describes the best practices of system and network administration, regardless of platforms, technologies, or type of organization,
- Covers new topics such as forensics, automation, Web services, and data storage, and includes new operating systems,
- Goes beyond major principles and skillsets to address the 'soft skills' necessary in today's work place.
