The Linux System Administrator's Guide is the definitive guide to administering a Linux-based system. This document is a must-read for not just system administrators, but for any advanced user of Linux-based system, which includes especially software developers. Knowing the things introduced here, and the skills learned, is very useful for all developers developing software in Linux or for Linux.
From the introduction of the manual itself:
The Linux System Administrator's Guide, describes the system administration aspects of using Linux. It is intended for people who know next to nothing about system administration (those saying "what is it?"), but who have already mastered at least the basics of normal usage. This manual doesn't tell you how to install Linux; that is described in the Installation and Getting Started document. See below for more information about Linux manuals.
System administration covers all the things that you have to do to keep a computer system in usable order. It includes things like backing up files (and restoring them if necessary), installing new programs, creating accounts for users (and deleting them when no longer needed), making certain that the filesystem is not corrupted, and so on. If a computer were, say, a house, system administration would be called maintenance, and would include cleaning, fixing broken windows, and other such things.
