I’ve been a Systems and Network Admin for quite a few years now, and I’ve recently come to a startling conclusion.  That is, there is a number relating to administrator of a system. When the quantity of admins reaches or exceeds that number, it then becomes a requirement to thoroughly document all parts of the network and all changes made from that point on. Once you have this many people mucking about within a system or network, there needs to be an accounting if what changes were made, when, and why. How that documentation is done is not really important (wikis, spreadsheets, whiteboards, clipboards, etc.), merely that it is done in the same place for changes.

That Number is One.
