Top 10 Scenario-Based Linux Interview Questions and Answers with Practical - Real Time

[@harryprer]

An user not being able to ssh into a server, first I check whether it is an isolated case. If it is, the most likely cause in a prod environment is either he has forgotten his password or he has not bothered to change his password before expiry or he probably doesn't have account on the server itself. If the login is key-based, then I go into permission of the private key, or check if user's public key is present in remote server etc. But that is super rare. :D

[@abhinavpaul5960]

can you please explain in short how load average is calculated in linux ?

[@moizshaikh4480]

Run Que length is formula of calculate load average

[@moizshaikh4480]

Load average is Cumilative and Combined load of system. If u run command load average then u will get 3 diffrent load averages.1st one is Load average of last 1 min, 2nd is Load average of last 5 mins and 3rd one is load average of last 15 mins load of your system. I hope this was helpful.

[@nitinrawat9477]

I have been asking u this same question for 3 months.. what's the difference between permissions given by chmod and suid ....but despite saying you would include it in ur coming videos...u never answered it or included it in any of ur videos......... also tell me what will happen if we don't include #!/bin/bash in our script.....will it run or not...or will generate error.... also difference between authorized_keys and known_hosts files

[@ServerGyan]

Dear Nitin, Sorry for the same, Let's start with chmod and suid chmod command is used to assign permission to a file or directory. It can assign permission to user, group or others only. but if you need to assign/revoke permission for a single user then you need to use setfacl command. SUID is used to assign special permission on any executable file, such as PING command. if you run ping command as non root user, it gets executed as root because of suid. if you remove suid, you won't be able to run ping command. In short, if you want a file to be executed as of its owner is executing it, we need to use SUID. Now let's talk about #!/bin/bash If you add this in script then you don't need to specify script file name ending with file.sh, your script will run without .sh ececution. but if you don't write #!/bin/bash then you need to mention. I hope this answers your question.

[@nitinrawat9477]

@@ServerGyan u left the 3rd question....

[@prashantjaiswal1]

@@@nitinrawat9477: when we try to connect any client through ssh, it sends its private key to client-server and it gets copied to the destination server and later it is used to authenticate that client knows the server. If your private key gets changed, your connection will get failed. This private key file resides in client known_hosts file and it used to identify the server identity through saved private key. known_hosts resides on the client."authorized_keys" resides on the server

[@rahulmahure3]

Hello Sir, I have few questions which was asked me recently 1. What details you give to Storage Team to Extend the Disk 2. What command you used to see which LUN is Assign with Which Disk 3. If 10GB is added by Storage team but you are not able to get that 10GB then how we troubleshoot it

[@rejibs]

Have faced same questions..

[@prashantjaiswal1]

@Rahul: 1: we need to provide the WWN number to the storage team and they can assign a new LUN/storage based on the WWN number. 2:you have to first scan the newly assigned luns using the echo command echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host*/scan. then you can use multipath -ll command or you can use ls -la /dev/disk/by-id/. it will show the luns assigned. 3: as earlier said, you have to scan the disk and it will show newly added disks. Hope this answers your question

[@rahulmahure3]

@@prashantjaiswal1 Thank You Prashant We can also scan the newly assigned luns by using sg3 package but Need to install sg3 package on server and then just run the below Command:- # rescan-scsi-bus.sh OR # /usr/bin/rescan-scsi-bus.sh

Write one "find" command sequence that search a file name "debug.log" under /var/log/debug and replace string "WARN" to "ERROR" 2.

Set SUID bit on the user mode to accomplish the task.

Use SUID , place value 4 before in the unmask value
