Start a new job on Monday and keen to make sure there aren't any gaps in my abilities. I was wondering what are the key skills required in regard to unix for IT support?
Bit of a split role with the other parts being BA/SQL/.NET/Java debugging
I'm happy enough with all of the above other than being a bit hazy on java debugging skills so if anyone has their two cents on that it would be appreciated. Based in eclipse btw.
Anyway I have very little information on the job and can only guess what skills will be needed which is why I am asking here. I imagine it will entail grepping log files, checking processes are in check, anything else?
During the interview the guy mentioned thread dumps? Can anyone explain a bit more about this, google'd it a bit but didn't find anything too clear. Essentially its a dump of all the information regarding java process threads? So I would use this to see if something is locked which shouldn't be and therefore remove it as it may be holding another process up?
