The df program displays the amount of free space (11/28/2007)
(...) Type this command to ensure the disk cache has been flushed: [root@workbox /root]# sync ; sync Tracking and Terminating Processes Under Linux (and UNIX in general), each running program comprises at least one process. From the operating system’s standpoint, each process is independent of the others. Unless it specifically asks to share resources with other processes, a process is confined to the memory and CPU allocation assigned to it. (...)

The top command is an interactive version of ps (11/28/2007)
(...) To do this, change the program’s permissions with the following command: [root@workbox /root]# chmod 0700 /usr/bin/top Sending a Signal to a Process: kill This program’s name is misleading: it doesn’t really kill processes. What it does do is send signals to running processes. The operating system, by default, supplies each process a standard set of signal handlers to deal with incoming signals. (...)

Lunux who command who is logged in (11/28/2007)
(...) The format of the command is as follows: [rwhite@workbox rwhite]$ telnet gregory where gregory is the name of another computer running either Linux or a variant of UNIX. Once you run the command, you will get a login prompt from that machine. Logging in to that machine enables you to run programs on the other host just as if you were running them on your own. (...)

Editing text filesin Linux Red Hat (11/28/2007)

The version of vi that ships with Linux distributions is VIM (VI iMproved). It has a lot of what made vi popular in the first place and many features that make it useful in today’s typical environments (including a graphical interface if X is running). (...)

Reviewing Linux File System Standards (11/28/2007)
(...) The other standard is the Linux Standard Base Specification (LSB). Like the FHS, the LSB is a standards group that specifies what a Linux distribution should have in terms of libraries and tools. A developer who only assumes that a Linux machine complies with the LSB and FHS is guaranteed to have an application that will work with all Linux installations. (...)

Linux is built upon the foundation of file systems (11/28/2007)
(...) It will help to clarify your understanding of the concept and let you see more easily how to take advantage of the architecture. i-Nodes The most fundamental building block of many UNIX file systems (including Linux’s ext2/ext3) is the i-node. An i-node is a control structure that points either to other i-nodes or to data blocks. (...)

Mounting and Unmounting Local Disks (11/28/2007)
(...) The mount process overlays a single subdirectory with the directory tree of the partition it is trying to mount. For example, let’s say that /dev/hda1 is the root partition. It has the directory /usr, which contains no files. (...)

The fsck tool short for File System ChecK (11/28/2007)
(...) If you find that a file system is not behaving as it should (log messages are excellent hints to this situation), you may want to run fsck yourself on a running system. The only downside is that the file system in question must be unmounted in order for this to work. If you choose to take this path, be sure to remount the file system when you are done. (...)

The process of adding a disk under Linux on the Intel (11/28/2007)
(...) Once the disk is in place, simply boot the system and you’re ready to go. If you aren’t sure about whether the system can see the new disk, run the dmesg command and see whether the driver loaded and was able to find your disk. For example: [root@tedford /root]# dmesg | more Overview of Partitions For the sake of clarity, and in case you need to know what a partition is and how it works, let’s do a brief review of this subject.

With the partitions created you need to put file systems on them (11/28/2007)
(...) Omit the -j, and you’ll create an ext2 partition instead. NOTE To convert the ext2 file system to an ext3 file system, run the command tune2fs –j /dev/hdb3 (of course, substituting your partition name for /dev/hdb3). To convert an ext3 file system to ext2, edit the /etc/fstab file so that the partition is listed as ext2, then unmount the partition and mount it again. (...)

Mounting NFS partitions works much the same way as mounting local partitions (11/28/2007)
(...) As its name implies, it automatically mounts file systems as they are needed. When it is used in conjunction with NIS (see Linux tutorial 17), you can produce a centralized set of maps that apply to your entire site, deploying the autofs service to mount only those partitions needed by users at the time they are needed. A good example of this is home directories. (...)

Using autofs to mount partitions across the network (11/28/2007)

Configuring Individual Partitions on Linux machines (11/28/2007)
(...) However, technical and/or political barriers may be standing in the way of using them. (For instance, the CEO may not like being told she can use only 5MB of the server disk space.) Quotas are, of course, optional— your system will be quite happy to hum along without them. (...)
