i need with this linux: how do i do the following?

Create a partition named /dev/sdf1 that uses all the available space on /dev/sdf. Format the partition with the xfs file system. Check your work using the file -s /dev/sdf1command.

Mount /dev/sdf1 at /mnt/duplicate

Use the xfsdump utility to make a backup of your root file system. Store the backup in the file /mnt/tape/backup.

Solution

To partition, we need to specify the partitioning standard we want to use. GPT is the most modern standard. To choose GPT standard , type following command,

$sudo parted /dev/sdf mklabel gpt

Once the format is selected, create a partition spanning the entire drive,

$sudo parted -a opt /dev/sdf mkpart /dev/sdf1 ext4 0% 100%

To check the new portion , type following command

$lsblk

To format the partition with xfs file system, type following command,

mkfs.xfs /dev/sdf1

To mount the newly created partition, you will have to first create the directory to be a mount point.

Type following commands

mkdir /mnt/duplicate

mount /dev/sdf1 /mnt/duplicate

mount | grep /dev/sdf1

The following command is used to make the backup of your root file system

xfsdump -l 0 -L \"Backup level 0 \" -f /mnt/tape/backup

To restore the backup

xfsrestore -f /mnt/tape/backup /
