- Regular software updates: This includes updating the InspIRCd software itself (e.g., from v3 to v4, or minor point releases) and the underlying operating system and libraries.
- Applying patches: Fixing known critical bugs or security vulnerabilities by applying patches to the IRC daemon or the host system.
- Routine hardware checks: Inspecting the physical server infrastructure, which is a general IT practice.
- Upgrades of hardware and infrastructure: Planning for and installing new hardware components as needed.
- Scheduled data backups: Regularly backing up configuration files (
inspircd.conf), module configurations, and any other critical data to prevent data loss. - Certificate management: Renewing and deploying SSL/TLS certificates for secure connections (often automated using cron jobs).
- Configuration changes: Implementing changes to the
inspircd.conffile, such as loading new modules, modifying settings, or adding/removing oper blocks, which typically require a restart or rehash of the daemon to take effect.
