That will create more Linux jobs.
On a related note, then there seems to some opportunities created by systemd. At the moment there lack some good documentation on how to use systemd for those who aren't total Linux beginners and have experience with Linux administration. There is Lennart's blog, but more examples are needed, especially beyond basic use.
So a good book on systemd (not just the usual rewriting of man pages) aimed at SA's will probably sell quite well.
There will probably be a bottleneck shortage of SA's with good and deep knowledge of systemd the next couple of years. So it is an opportunity for those looking for a promotion/new job. It will look good to have "extensive systemd experience" on the CV in the future.
