The 1st thing I do is check Activity Monitor, then I run a status report
print it and then file it in a notebook. I also check the drives to make
sure they are not in a down state. Every Monday I go through the event logs
and save them to another location. I also try to run a media summary report
checking for suspended and Frozen tapes. I'm sure, I am leaving something
out but hopefully this is a start.

I'm looking for suggestions from more experienced admins. What do you check
on a daily (or other regular) basis to make sure things are humming along
and there are no dark clouds on the horizon?
 
The problems report? Available media output? Activity monitor? Do you check
in the gui or do you have some scripts that search for the things you're
interested in?
 
I will summarize.
