Dev-sys-ops-admin? Part 1
At the CTL we have about two dozen utility machines spread over 6 physical locations, as well as another three dozen or so staff laptops. Managing updates, user accounts, and printers for all these machines is not only a big job, but also one of many small repetitive steps—which makes it ripe for automation. Having been exposed to DevOps practices at the CTL, I wanted to find a way to corral all these machines in a sustainable way.
