That's what I often do, however it is clear that most of this tasks can be done automatically, so there should be somebody doing a 'linux-doctor' open source project that will try to identify issues automatically. Assuming it does not exist, but I never saw it before.
- TomNomNom 14y agoIf you're able to, it's a good idea to have a monitoring system like Nagios/OpsView in place that checks most of these things for you proactively. That way you can have a good idea of the health of a server before you even connect to it. With such a system in place you'll often spot problems before your customers do too.
