Free SUSE Certified Administrator in Enterprise Linux 15 Practice Questions

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server supports two different kinds of VNC sessions: One-time sessions that “live” as long as the VNC connection from the client is kept up, and persistent sessions that “live” until they are explicitly terminated.

5.1 One-time VNC Sessions

5.2 Persistent VNC Sessions

Log file rotation is the process of compressing or deleting old log files to save disk space and improve performance. The /etc/logrotate.conf file controls the global settings for log file rotation, such as frequency, size limit, compression method, etc. The /etc/logrotate.d/ directory contains configuration files for specific log files that can override the global settings in /etc/logrotate.conf. The /usr/sbin/logrotate program is used to perform log file rotation according to the configuration files. It is usually invoked by a cron job in /etc/cron.daily/logrotate.

The configuration files that have a format that is compatible with the system logging facility in SUSE Linux Enterprise are /etc/syslog.conf and /etc/rsyslog.conf. These files contain rules that specify how to filter and process log messages from different sources and destinations. The /etc/syslog.conf file is used by the traditional syslogd daemon, while the /etc/rsyslog.conf file is used by the more advanced rsyslogd daemon. SUSE Linux Enterprise uses rsyslogd by default, but it can also read /etc/syslog.conf for backward compatibility.

The basic components of RPM are RPM Database and RPM Package Manager. The RPM Database is a collection of files that store information about installed packages on the system. It is located in /var/lib/rpm by default. The RPM Package Manager is a set of tools and libraries that allow you to install, uninstall, query, verify, and manage RPM packages. It includes commands such as rpm, zypper, yast2, etc. References:https://documentation.suse.com/sles/15-SP3/html/SLES-all/cha-rpm.html#sec-rpm-components

The valid device types are character and block devices. Character devices are devices that transfer data byte by byte, such as keyboards, mice, terminals, etc. Block devices are devices that transfer data in fixed-size blocks, such as disks, CD-ROMs, etc. Pipe, null, redirect, udev, and network are not device types but rather concepts or components related to devices or device management.
