SIMULATION
One Logical Volume is created named as myvol under vo volume group and is mounted. The Initial Size of that Logical Volume is 400MB. Make successfully that the size of Logical Volume 200MB without losing any data.
The size of logical volume 200MB to 210MB will be acceptable.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

First check the size of Logical Volume: lvdisplay /dev/vo/myvol
Make sure that the filesystem is in a consistent state before reducing:
# fsck -f /dev/vo/myvol
Now reduce the filesystem by 200MB.
# resize2fs /dev/vo/myvol 200M

It is now possible to reduce the logical volume. #lvreduce /dev/vo/myvol -L 200M
Verify the Size of Logical Volume: lvdisplay /dev/vo/myvol
Verify that the size comes in online or not: df -h



SIMULATION
One Logical Volume named /dev/test0/testvolume1 is created. The initial Size of that disk is 100MB now you required more 200MB. Increase the size of Logical Volume, size should be increase on online.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

lvextend -L+200M /dev/test0/testvolume1 Use lvdisplay /dev/test0/testvolume1)
ext2online -d /dev/test0/testvolume1
lvextend command is used the increase the size of Logical Volume. Other command lvresize command also here to resize. And to bring increased size on online we use the ext2online command.



SIMULATION
We are working on /data initially the size is 2GB. The /dev/test0/lvtestvolume is mount on /data. Now you required more space on /data but you already added all disks belong to physical volume. You saw that you have unallocated space around 5 GB on your harddisk. Increase the size of lvtestvolume by 5GB.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Create a partition having size 5 GB and change the syste id '8e'.
use partprobe command
pvcreate /dev/hda9 Suppose your partition number is hda9.
vgextend test0 /dev/hda9 vgextend command add the physical disk on volume group.
lvextend -L+5120M /dev/test0/lvtestvolume
verify using lvdisplay /dev/test0/lvtestvolume.



SIMULATION
One Domain RHCE is configured in your lab, your domain server is server1.example.com. nisuser2001, nisuser2002, nisuser2003 user are created on your server 192.168.0.254:/rhome/stationx/nisuser2001. Make sure that when NIS user login in your system automatically mount the home directory. Home directory is separately shared on server /rhome/stationx/ where x is your Station number.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

use the authconfig --nisserver=<NIS SERVER> --nisdomain=<NIS DOMAIN> -- update
Example: authconfig --niserver=192.168.0.254 --nisdomain=RHCE --update or system-config-authentication
Click on Enable NIS
Type the NIS Domain: RHCE
Type Server 192.168.0.254 then click on next and ok
You will get a ok message.
Create a Directory /rhome/stationx where x is your station number.
vi /etc/auto.master and write at the end of file /rhome/stationx /etc/auto.home --timeout=60
vi /etc/auto.home and write
* -rw,soft,intr 192.168.0.254:/rhome/stationx/&
Note: please specify your station number in the place of x.
Service autofs restart
Login as the nisuser2001 or nisuser2002 on another terminal will be Success. According to question, RHCE domain is already configured. We have to make a client of RHCE domain and automatically mount the home directory on your system. To make a member of domain, we use the authconfig with option or system-config authentication command. There a are lots of authentication server i.e NIS, LDAB, SMB etc. NIS is a RPC related Services, no need to configure the DNS, we should specify the NIS server address.

Here Automount feature is available. When user tried to login, home directory will automatically mount. The automount service used the /etc/auto.master file. On
/etc/auto.master file we specified the mount point the configuration file for mount point.



SIMULATION
Make on data that only the user owner and group owner member can fully access.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

chmod 770 /data
Verify using : ls -ld /data Preview should be like:
drwxrwx--- 2 root sysadmin 4096 Mar 16 18:08 /data
To change the permission on directory we use the chmod command.
According to the question that only the owner user (root) and group member (sysadmin) can fully access the directory so: chmod 770 /data
