XK0-005 Dumps with Practice Exam Questions Answers

The administrator should use the command mount disk by device-id to resolve the device mismatch issue and mount the disk. The issue is caused by the cloned server having a different device name for the disk than the original server. The output of blkid shows that the disk has the device name /dev/sdb1 on the cloned server, but the output of cat /etc/fstab shows that the disk is expected to have the device name /dev/sda1. The command mount disk by device-id will mount the disk by using its unique identifier (UUID) instead of its device name. The UUID can be obtained from the output of blkid or lsblk -f. The command will mount the disk to the specified mount point (/data) and resolve the issue. The other options are incorrect because they either do not mount the disk (fsck -A), do not use the correct identifier (mount disk by-label or mount disk by-blkid), or do not exist (mount disk by-blkid). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 10: Managing Storage, pages 318-319.

The dnf update command will accomplish the task of installing the most recent versions of packages on a RPM-based OS. This command will check for available updates from the enabled repositories and apply them to the system. The apt-get upgrade command is used to install updates on a Debian-based OS, not a RPM-based OS. The rpm -a command is invalid, as -a is not a valid option for rpm. The yum updateinfo command will display information about available updates, but it will not install them. The yum check-update command will check for available updates, but it will not install them. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 19: Managing Packages and Software, page 559.

The issue is caused by the server 192.168.168.53 being unreachable. This server is the DNS server configured in the /etc/resolv.conf file, which is used to resolve domain names to IP addresses. The ping command shows that the server cannot be reached, and the nslookup command shows that the name www.comptia.org cannot be resolved using this server. The other options are incorrect because:

• The name www.comptia.org does point to a valid IP address, as shown by the nslookup command using another DNS server (8.8.8.8).
• The default route is set on the server, as shown by the ip route command, which shows a default gateway of 192.168.168.1.
• The network interface eth0 is connected, as shown by the ip link command, which shows a state of UP for eth0. References: CompTIA Linux+ Study Guide, Fourth Edition, page 457-458, 461-462.

The command sed -i 's/auto/persistent/g' /etc/systemd/journald.conf && sed -i 'persistent/s/ˆ#//q' /etc/systemd/journald.conf will accomplish the task of guaranteeing the persistency of journal log files across system reboots. The sed command is a tool for editing text files on Linux systems. The -i option modifies the file in place. The s command substitutes one string for another. The g flag replaces all occurrences of the string. The && operator executes the second command only if the first command succeeds. The q command quits after the first match. The /etc/systemd/journald.conf file is a configuration file for the systemd-journald service, which is responsible for collecting and storing log messages. The command sed -i 's/auto/persistent/g' /etc/systemd/journald.conf will replace the word auto with the word persistent in the file. This will change the value of the Storage option, which controls where the journal log files are stored. The value auto means that the journal log files are stored in the volatile memory and are lost after reboot, while the value persistent means that the journal log files are stored in the persistent storage and are preserved across reboots. The command sed -i 'persistent/s/ˆ#//q' /etc/systemd/journald.conf will remove the # character at the beginning of the line that contains the word persistent. This will uncomment the Storage option and enable it. The command sed -i 's/auto/persistent/g' /etc/systemd/journald.conf && sed -i 'persistent/s/ˆ#//q' /etc/systemd/journald.conf will guarantee the persistency of journal log files across system reboots by changing and enabling the Storage option to persistent. This is the correct command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either do not change the value of the Storage option (grep -i auto /etc/systemd/journald.conf && systemct1 restart systemd-journald.service or cat /etc/systemd/journald.conf | awk '(print $1,$3)') or do not enable the Storage option (journalctl --list-boots && systemct1 restart systemd-journald.service). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 16: Managing Logging and Monitoring, page 489.

The command mv .ssh/authorized_key .ssh/authorized_keys will resolve the issue and allow an SSH connection to be established without a password. The issue is caused by the incorrect file name of the authorized key file on the server. The file should be named authorized_keys, not authorized_key. The mv command will rename the file and fix the issue. The other options are incorrect because they either do not affect the file name (restorecon or chmod) or do not restart the SSH service (systemct1). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 13: Managing Network Services, page 410.
