System Administration Documentation

I am doing a review of system documentation for all clients I support and wanted to query EE to see if any best practices can be suggested, or even a template for how to document and set out all information for each client.

Hi Flipp

Could you clarify what you mean by a review of system documentation:
- is it a review of overall documentation of systems/networks in a configuration management database?
- is it a review of asset tracking?
- is it a review of software documentation in terms of system administration and user manuals?
- is it a review of how code is commented by developers?

I have some forms that I use, which would be happy to share - just give a bit more detail, please.

When it comes to documenting configuration for network, hardware and software. (e.g. Mail server is Exchange 200x and is configured with .....) so more like point #1 from your list. I currently have a .doc with all info in it that I have pulled from different sources but now looking at storing someway.

I am looking at a wiki or maybe it stays in a word document, but trying to establish consistency for multiple clients.

ALthough this product did do as you suggested, I am after more of a complete set of documentation than what this product could provide.
