Q1: Do you feel that this summary fairly explains the expected
responsibility level of a level 2 candidate, while understanding that
LPI is unable to certify skills beyond a technical level?
Q1 Answer and Comment:
Level I represents the junior administrator or the administrator in
training. This position is purely for learning the technical aspects
of the trade. Level II begins the evaluation, planning, and
implementation of large scale systems. this requires some management
skills as well as refined technical skills.

Q2: Do you agree that the generic responsibility levels in these
paragraphs is true to a mid level to advanced system administrator?
Q2 Answer and Comment:
Generically yes. However, as I'm sure you know, systems administration
job definitions mutate with the needs of management. This certification,
while important, will not cancel out the needs of management. These
mutating definitions will still continue.
-----
Q3: Do you think it's fair to compare level 1 administrators and level 2
administrators in the final paragraph, as it pertains to the LPI
certification?
Q3 Answer and Comment:
Yes, there must be some some language in the document that clearly defines
the differences in the two stages. I would recommend expanding this
definition to be as clear and concise as possible. Remember, this
document will be used by laypersons as well as professionals. It must
be understandable to both.

Q5: Without getting into technical specifics, are there other general job
aspects that you feel need to be addressed here?
Q5 Answer and Comment:
If complete workstation and server implementation and maintenance, as well
as the beginnings of systems planning, is your goal for this level then
you did it right. If not, please try again.

Your Questions and Comments:
While I think this document gives an understanding of the the breadth of
knowledge required for this position, I think there should be language
in the document to further define the Level II Administrator. This
is important for a clear understanding for both management and
professional.
