What is a Lazy Admin?
“Being a lazy admin means following best practices and using the tools available to be proactive about maintenance. SMS 2003, MOM 2005, WSUS and the slew of Microsoft best practices analyzers can help by automating updates and application deployments as well as monitoring servers and services. This enables you to find and fix small problems before they pile up into larger issues. Proper planning, implementation and proactive maintenance will maximize system availability and minimize the occurrence of issues, allowing you to put your feet up on the desk, relax, and be a lazy admin “
