Systems management refers to enterprise-wide administration of distributed systems including (and
commonly in practice) computer systems[citation needed]. Systems management is strongly
influenced by network management initiatives in telecommunications. System management may involve
one or more of the following tasks:
Hardware inventories.
Server availability monitoring and metrics.
Software inventory and installation.
Anti-virus and anti-malware management.
User's activities monitoring.
Capacity monitoring.
Security management.
Storage management.
Network capacity and utilization monitoring.
