A definition of System Administration – from Wikipedia
A system administrator, systems administrator, or sysadmin, is a person employed to maintain and operate a computer system and/or network. System administrators may be members of an information technology department.
“The duties of a system administrator are wide-ranging, and vary widely from one organisation to another. Sysadmins are usually charged with installing, supporting, and maintaining servers, planning for and responding to service outages, security issues and other day to day problems that may arise. Duties may also include scripting or light programming, project management for systems-related projects and being the consultant for computer problems beyond the knowledge of technical support staff. A System Administrator must demonstrate a blend of technical skills and responsibility.”
