♫ Should old resolutions be forgotten, and never come to be...should old resolutions be forgotten, let's try them...one...more...time! ♬ That's right, fellow sysadmins, it's that time of year again. As we bring 2016 to a close (and not a moment too soon given what a year it has been, kicking and screaming as it holds on past the very last second!) it's only natural to start to consider what the new year will bring. What bad habits will we finally drop. What good ones will we adopt? For many, those questions have a very personal slant and are around better health and exercise, but for sysadmins everywhere, they can just as easily be asked of how we run our networks.

With the start of 2017 here are 17 resolutions you can consider adopting for the long run. Trying to adopt all of them may be more than you can do, but see if you can get a good handful going. Trust me, you will be better off for it!
