Summary

  • A Senior Unix / Linux Systems Administrator with over 19 years’ experience in Unix / Linux systems administration, Linux 5/6/7 (RHEL) networks, platforms and servers. Background includes:
  • Performing system administration duties including server install / configuration, firewall management, system / application install and patch management, Unix/Linux/Storage problem determination and escalation, log analysis, etc.
  • Configuring and administering Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Windows Server, CentOS and VMware ESX on a variety of hardware platforms.
  • Experience in scripting: The scripts I have created or modified were to help automate tasks as a systems administrator: Tracking disk space usage, Searching logs for troubleshooting system problems, Rotating and truncating log files, Making IP/MAC address lists for network validation, Creating scripts to configure network interfaces for newly built Virtual Machines, Searching port numbers for tasks connected to them
  • Scripting languages I have used: Python, Ruby, and BASH.
  • I can write a script from scratch if needed, but I find it faster and easier to use Google to find something written and then modify as needed for the task at hand.
