errr... no. Give me a programmer who can transfer 1 Tb of Oracle data
from a 3310 and D1000 storage arrays and move the data to an EMC
CLARiiON CX500 SAN. And on the cut over date, do it less than 2
minutes with no *downtime*.
Programmers and system admins have their place.
Of course. Specially in systems engineered to have the admin in the first place.
For me, I see a trend where outsourcing can potentially displace a
system admins job. I have seen it in a company where I have some
contacts. Once other companies smells what they are doing, it's just a
matter of time.
Another issue is the system vendors looking for ways to drastically
cut costs in data centers and they are asking why is system management
so hard?
