Solaris Administrator 1

[DayDreemer]

I am a technician who also serves as a "local administrator" for some of our medical systems that uses solaris as their operating system. Since first dabbling in it about 6 years ago, I have become quite fond of the OS, and am considering becoming certified for Solaris 9. For the most part, I maintain the DHCP servers, and install new systems onto the network. Does the certification automatically qualify me as a administrator? What is a typical job description for a Solaris Administrator? Any tips a appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks tfg, I have already placed a post it in that forum as well, I was just hoping to get some type of response from one of the forums.

As far as being certified, that does qualify you as an administrator. As far as the job descriptions, that is really going to vary from job to job. I know a couple of Sun administrators that spent most of their time doing "other" duties (that's if you get the "and other duties as assigned" moniker with a job). I think it is mostly due to the OS being so stable.
