hi.. i'm trying to get my hands around the issue of managing servers. in particular, i'm trying to get a better understanding of how people manage their servers when it comes to installing/upgrading apps. i imagine most people simply do the install via rpm/yum/apt-get.. however, if you really want to manage multiple servers, you need some way of knowing that what you're doing want screw up something else on the server. you also need some way of managing the software assets on the different boxes/etc... so, assuming you have multiple servers, how do you deal with these issues? thanks -bruce bedouglas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
