Hey folks! Andy here, and in this episode of SysAdmin Weekly Eric and I answer the hard questions regarding the documentation we all put off, but secretly depend on.... whether we like it or not.

In this episode we cover:

- Why poor (or missing) documentation is the root of so many SysAdmin nightmares

- War stories where “future you” had to clean up past you’s mess

- Tools, templates, and mindset shifts to make living documentation actually .....live

- Change control, accuracy, and how to trust what your docs say

Whether you're flying solo or managing teams, this episode will give you ideas to start building docs you’ll thank yourself for later.

Hit subscribe, ring the bell, and share this with someone whose servers are mysterious even to them. Let’s make documentation less boring, more usable, and fearless.
