I've recently been asked to recommend an upgrade route for a number of linux servers, and I proposed going to devuan. In response, I've had a concern raised which took me by surprise. It was suggested that in the future, it may not be possible to find staff who have the skills to administer and manage servers running non-systemd or pre-systemd distros/releases.
I've tried to give reassurance - but I'm still wondering if this could be a valid concern. I'd always taken the view that it's primarily the linux sysadmin community which is trying to stop the onslaught of the systemd juggernaut - but obviously, the greater the proportion of servers running systemd-based distros/releases, the less staff get exposed to non-systemd management techniques and tools. I'd be grateful for thoughts and comments. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
