What I love about Kelly is he's a true embodiment of an amazing SysAdmin. I absolutely love his personality, his work ethic, and especially his love for his dog. I would be proud to work under such a wonderful man and to those who have that privilege, I envy you!
15 years as system administrator and main thing what i do (by time consumed) is explanation to users (and managers) what systems can and can't do; that systems whatever amount of money you paid for it never satisfy all your needs you had, have and will have in the future. systems typically specialized and rigid (more "enterprize-grade" - more rigid), so depending on how good you planed your demand that will be particularly that what you will get. for example, you will not be able to convince processor unit work faster, what is sensory surprise for majority non-IT guys 😀
Wishing you all the luck! I have the same goal, currently work in the Fashion industry and it’s not my cup of tea, used to study medicine and also wasn’t my cup of tea, I’m hoping IT is.
Depends on the Job. In a Datacenter i.E. The wiring to your rack that is the shelves where your gear sits in is already done by on Site electricians. The wiring in your rack and the Hardware is mostly completley in your own hands
I'm not really sure where that line would be drawn. In past jobs I've done both, in small companies. As a sys admin I don't work much on the network except to connect to the switch that is provided. The network admins that I work with work mainly on switches and the transferring of information from one point to another.
Companies run things differently. In general, the network admin maybe responsible for all or parts of the network infrastructure or configuration. A systems admin may be in charge of servers and their configuration. Or the term systems administrator maybe a generic term that refers to a person who is in charge of a particular system.
If I understand it correctly( and I may not)the systems administrator is responsible for the resources. The network administrator is responsible for the connectivity. The switches, routers, and firewalls belong to the network administrator. The servers, workstations, storage and back up solutions belong the the systems administrator.
Now THAT is a Sys Admin video. I've just watched two other videos from a couple of clowns. One of them did a patch-paneling job that I would NEVER sign my name to, finished off with splicing on every single cable going into the switch. Ridiculous. The other one, the "sys admin" (I don't believe it for a second) couldn't even speak the lingo. He didn't know what a developer was, or how to even talk to the developer.

@@kellymcphee Thankfully our equipment is not for large scale deployments, so we just have stuff that only needs two people on each side of the rack. But man I feel bad for my boss, he's 50 and 6'8 and I could tell that it put a strain on his back over the years. Especially for some of the days where he had to do everything by himself, before I joined. I'm glad I could do all the heavy lifting for him now ':) but yeah some equipment would be nice

I've recently been promoted to MDM Admin and this is very interesting. Thank you for this.
Such a great insight into this field, love the wholesome setting of the video too, thanks for sharing with us
In 2 weeks I will start my first internship in networking. Someday I will be a SysAdmin

I wonder how you're going taking in account it's been 11 months since this comment.
I’m a college IT student doing a bachelors in IT (Hons.) and I like this job the most I might peruse this one.

What software are you using to do the health check. Is it active directory? If so azure or windows?
Looks to me like he's in a bash shell, no Microsoft.
Can someone explain to me what the difference between a systemadmin and a networkadmin is?
It seems like everything was already setup by outside IT contractors and system admins are the people who managed and look after them?

I wish our data center had a serverlift 🥲
The lift is amazingly helpful. We also have some servers that are more than three people can lift so it's essential. Thank you for watching.
