When installing a new system its important to set up the sys

When installing a new system, it’s important to set up the system volume such that each filesystem (/var /usr/ ... etc.) has adequate space for both current and future needs.

The Foobar Linux distribution uses the following defaults:

    /                     2GB
    /var            100MB
    /boot          100MB
    <swap>         2GB
    /usr            remaining space

Describe two potential problems with such an arrangement on a busy server box?

Solution

The swap file should have to be increased as apps are used.The /var directory could easily fill with log messages as user and activity increase.The user directory could get unwieldy if the server is busy due to increasing user numbers

Administrators can monitor full disks and restrict a given users access to temp. We may also be able to define a control group to limit device access.Linux is a legally, developmentally, and historically distinct entity that cannot properly be referred to as “UNIX” or as a “version of UNIX.” To do so is to slight the work and innovation of the Linux community. At the same time, it’s somewhat misleading to insist that Linux is “not UNIX.” If your creation walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, you may have invented a duck.
