Automating Linux and UNIX System Administration
Whether you need a network with ten Linux computers and a server or a data center with several thousand UNIX nodes, you need to know how to automate the installation, configuration, and management of the standard system.

The book Automating Linux and UNIX System Administration focuses on how to make the system administrator’s work simpler and more efficient, and outlines technologies for automating repetitive tasks.
