An IT professional's job is to design, test, deploy, and manage clients and servers throughout the organization. In order to best offer technical solutions, it's helpful to treat systems administration as a continuous process of discovery, adaptation, and maintenance. The life cycle for systems management involves evaluating current systems, modifying requirements, testing, deploying new systems, and managing the systems.

Systems administrators and power users know that the Mac's command-line interface can be a powerful time saver and, in many cases, the only method to accomplish certain tasks.
