-===== Introduction to Server Maintenance =====
-So you now have a working Openmediavault installation.  That's a great start! \\
-For casual home users that may seem like all that's required and, indeed, for
-a computer hobbyist, a working Linux server may be enough.  Adding to that, a Linux server that's not tampered with may outlast the hardware it's
-installed on. \\
-\\
-On the other hand, PC hardware and hard drives fail.  Some users may want to change their hardware, add new hardware,
-expand openmediavault with server add-on packages, etc.  As users discover the value added packages available to expand the capabilities,
-Linux servers tend to "evolve".  On a rare occasion software that is pushed down from upstream, in a security or package update,
-may not be compatible with existing server packages. \\
-\\
-All of the above possibilities compound the risk of creating an unresolvable problem.  The end result of these
-possible events leaves an open question; "How do I recover?"
-==== Purpose ====
-The purpose and intent of this document is to provide home users and new Linux admin's with basic utilities
-and simple backup processes needed to maintain a server.  While openmediavault is driven by a web page GUI, server maintain is greatly
-facilitated if users know how to get on the command line.  To get advice on the forum, forum supporters may ask for "the output of a command".
-A running assumption is that Openmediavault users will know how to get on the command line.
-This document was written to introduce new users to useful utilities and to provide examples of maintenance concepts and simple procedures.

-===== Utilities to Help With Openmediavault Management =====
-As previously noted, being able to work from the command line would be very useful to users, who may need to
-gather detailed information on the OS and platform hardware, for troubleshooting and
-for an occasional edit to a configuration file.  Much can be learned with the following
-utilities that allow users to look at Openmediavault “under the hood”. \\
