It depends on what the job requirements are. A small shop might have the sysadmin taking care of the network, but in large organisations, there will be seperate teams for network, storage and systems.
Usually, you need to know atleast one of the OSes properly (commercial Linux versions/Solaris/HP-UX/AIX/etc), preferably two. You need to have an understanding of networks (even if you do not work on any networking aspects), esp addressing, subnets and such. A large shop will require you to have worked on at least one volume manager as well. Understanding storage concepts is also very helpful, and try to learn one major backup/recovery tool (HP-OpenviewDP, Netbackup, Legato).

I don't really get the question.

MESG(1)                                                            User Commands                                                           MESG(1)

NAME

       mesg - display (or do not display) messages from other users

SYNOPSIS

       mesg [option] [n|y]

DESCRIPTION

       The mesg utility is invoked by a user to control write access others have to the terminal device associated with standard error output.  If
       write access is allowed, then programs such as talk(1) and write(1) may display messages on the terminal.

       Traditionally, write access is allowed by default.  However, as users become more conscious of various security risks, there is a trend  to
       remove write access by default, at least for the primary login shell.  To make sure your ttys are set the way you want them to be set, mesg
       should be executed in your login scripts.

ARGUMENTS

       n      Disallow messages.

       y      Allow messages to be displayed.

       If no arguments are given, mesg shows the current message status on standard error output.

OPTIONS

       -v, --verbose
              Explain what is being done.

       -V, --version
              Display version information and exit.

       -h, --help
              Display help text and exit.

EXIT STATUS

       The mesg utility exits with one of the following values:

            0     Messages are allowed.

            1     Messages are not allowed.

           >1     An error has occurred.

FILES

       /dev/[pt]ty[pq]?

SEE ALSO

       login(1), talk(1), write(1), wall(1), xterm(1)

HISTORY

       A mesg command appeared in Version 6 AT&T UNIX.

AVAILABILITY

       The mesg command is part of the util-linux package and is available from https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/util-linux/.
