SolutionThe most of what I do is to add users and change their passwords when they forget them.
Also to clean up file systems and manage disk space when the user puts out thousands of page reports or needs more space for Oracle.

Re: Routine problems
It looks for lbolt messages which inevitably lead to disk replacement.
We burned through a lot of disks, so I had cron start running this job. The actual problem was a bad drive cage, through which bandwidth and power are directed to internal drives.

Re: Routine problems
- this includes disk space monitoring, performance monitoring, etc.
2) Maintain the system.
- periodic patching, user/passwd maintenance, etc.
3) Plan the new system.
- the fun part, planning to take advantage of new technologies

Re: Routine problems
Printer admin - eg: adding, removing, troubleshooting
User admin - passwords, enviroment changes,
System monitoring - user audits, space checks, CPU/memory checks, performance checks
Hardware issues - diagnosis and in some cases repair (disk swaps, tape swaps, CPU failures etc)
Security monitoring - failed/bogus login attempts, failed su attempts, various other audits.
System installation and admin - use of Ignite, backup and recovery procedures, extending filesystems, kernel modifications etc.
Network admin - routing changes, monitoring
Other support issues - staff training, project planning, scheduling maintenance jobs, system reporting, testing and development
...I know it seems overwhelming, (and that's not everything), but the key is not to try to tackle everything at once, and to stick at it. Once it starts to make sense, it can be quite easy.

Re: Routine problems
If this SA and his company have (hardware) support contract, then only all these above apply to SA job - software support.
But if they do not have support, SA becomes more hardware-oriented, needs to be skilled in hardware troubleshooting and fast hardware problem resolution (parts purchasing and replacement)
