NEW QUESTION 2
You are attempting to edit your crontab file in the bash shell. Instead of getting your usual vi interface, you are presented with an unfamiliar interface. In order to have your editor of choice-vi- what command must you type after exiting the unfamiliar editor?

• A. EDITOR=vi
• B. crontab=vi
• C. crontab – e vi
• D. env

Answer: A

Explanation:
Set the EDITOR variable to vi.
Commands like `crontab -e` will use ed per default. If you'd like to use some better editor (like vi) you can use the environment variable EDITOR:
# EDITOR=vi; crontab –e will open the users crontab in vi. Of course you can set this variable permanently.
Incorrect answers
C: -e Edits a copy of the current user's crontab file, or creates an empty file to edit if crontab does not exist. When editing is complete, the file is installed as the user's crontab file. If a username is given, the specified user's crontab file is edited, rather than the current user's crontab file; this can only be done by a user with the solaris.jobs.admin authorization. The environment variable EDITOR determines which editor is invoked with the -e option. The default editor is ed(1). All crontab jobs should be submitted using crontab. Do not add jobs by just editing the crontab file, because cron is not aware of changes made this way.

NEW QUESTION 3
View the following information for a software package:

Which command would you use to display this information for a software package that is not currently installed on your system?

• A. pkg list gzip
• B. pkg info -r gzip
• C. pkg search –1 gzip
• D. pkg verify –v gzip
• E. pkg contents gzip

Answer: B

Explanation:
By default, the pkg info command only lists information about installed packages on the system; however, we can use a similar command to look up information about uninstalled packages, as shown in here:
Example:
Listing Information About an Uninstalled Package
# pkg info -r php-52 Name: web/php-52 Summary: PHP Server 5.2
Description: PHP Server 5.2 Category: Development/PHP State: Not Installed Publisher: solaris

Note: pkg info command displays information about packages in a human-readable form. Multiple FMRI patterns may be specified; with no patterns, display information on all
installed packages in the image.
With -l, use the data available from locally installed packages. This is the default.
With -r, retrieve the data from the repositories of the image's configured publishers. Note that you must specify one or more package patterns in this case.

NEW QUESTION 4
You are logged in to a Solaris 11 system as user jack. You issue the following sequence of commands:

Identify two correct statements.

• A. You have the effective privilege of the account root.
• B. Your GID is 10.
• C. Your home directory is /root.
• D. You are running the shell specified for the account root.
• E. Your UID is 1.

Answer: AB

Explanation:
Oracle Solaris provides predefined rights profiles. These profiles, listed in the
/etc/security/prof_attr, can be assigned by the root role to any account. The root role is assigned all privileges and all authorizations, so can perform all tasks, just as root can when root is a user.
To perform administrative functions, you open a terminal and switch the user to root. In that terminal, you can then perform all administrative functions.
$ su - root
Password: Type root password
#
When you exit the shell, root capabilities are no longer in effect.

NEW QUESTION 10
User1 is attempting to assist user2 with terminating user2's process 1234. User1 entered the following: kill -9 1234
Why does the process continue to run?

• A. You can kill a process only if you are root.
• B. You can kill only a process that you own.
• C. You can kill the process only with the pkill command.
• D. You need to kill the process with a stronger kill signal.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Kill -9
Kill (terminates without cleanup)
Only works if issued by process owner or super user (root) The program cannot respond to this signal; it must terminate
Note: Unix provides security mechanisms to prevent unauthorized users from killing other processes. Essentially, for a process to send a signal to another, the owner of the signaling process must be the same as the owner of the receiving process or be the superuser.

NEW QUESTION 13
Which two options are characteristics of a fast reboot?

• A. A fast reboot bypasses grub.
• B. A fast reboot cannot be used after a system panic on the x86 platform.
• C. A fast reboot can only be executed on the SPARC platform when the config/fastreboot_default property for the svc:/system/boot-config:default service is set to true.
• D. A fast reboot uses an in-kernel boot loader to load the kernel into memory.
• E. A fast reboot is the default on all platforms.

Answer: CD

Explanation:
C: To change the default behavior of the Fast Reboot feature on the SPARC platform, so that a fast reboot is automatically performed when the system reboots, see below.
The following example shows how to set the property's value to true on the SPARC platform, so that a fast reboot is initiated by default:
# svccfg -s "system/boot-config:default" setprop config/fastreboot_default=true
# svcadm refresh svc:/system/boot-config:default
D: Fast Reboot implements an in-kernel boot loader that loads the kernel into memory and then switches to that kernel.
The firmware and boot loader processes are bypassed, which enables the system to reboot within seconds.
The Fast Reboot feature is managed by SMF and implemented through a boot configuration service, svc:/system/boot-config. The boot-config service provides a means for setting or changing the default boot configuration parameters. When the config/fastreboot_default property is set to true, the system performs a fast reboot automatically, without the need to use the reboot -f command. This property's value is set to true on the x86 platform. For task-related information, including how to change the default behavior of Fast Reboot on the SPARC platform, see Accelerating the Reboot Process on an x86 Based System.
Note: One new feature, called Fast Reboot, will allow the system to boot up without doing the routine set of hardware checks, a move that can make system boot times up to two- and-a-half times faster, Oracle claimed. This feature can be handy in that an administrator applying a patch or software update across thousands of Solaris deployments can reboot them all the more quickly.

NEW QUESTION 14
Which command should you choose to display the current parameters for the FSS scheduler?

• A. dispadmin - c FSS
• B. prionctl -c FSS
• C. dispadmin -c FSS -g
• D. priocntl -c FSS -g

Answer: C

Explanation:
The dispadmin command displays or changes process scheduler parameters while the system is running.
-c class
Specifies the class whose parameters are to be displayed or changed. Valid class values are: RT for the real-time class, TS for the time-sharing class, IA for the inter-active class, FSS for the fair-share class, and FX for the fixed-priority class. The time-sharing and inter- active classes share the same scheduler, so changes to the scheduling parameters of one will change those of the other.
-g
Gets the parameters for the specified class and writes them to the standard output.

You log in to the system as user1, then switch user to root by using the su - command. After entering the correct password, yon enter the following commands:
whoami;who am i;id
Which option correctly represents the output?

• A. Option A
• B. Option B
• C. Option C
• D. Option D

Answer: B

Explanation:
* The whoami utility displays your effective user ID as a name. Here this would be root.
* who am i
The command who shows who is logged on. Here this would be:
user1 console Dec 30 20:20
* The id utility displays the user and group names and numeric IDs, of the calling process, to the standard output. If the real and effective IDs are different, both are displayed, otherwise only the real ID is displayed.
Here this would be: uid=0(root) gid=0(root)
Note:
Each UNIX proces has 3 UIDs associated to it. Superuser privilege is UID=0.
Real UID
--------
This is the UID of the user/process that created THIS process. It can be changed only if the running process has EUID=0.
Effective UID
-------------
This UID is used to evaluate privileges of the process to perform a particular action. EUID can be change either to RUID, or SUID if EUID!=0. If EUID=0, it can be changed to anything.
Saved UID
---------
If the binary image file, that was launched has a Set-UID bit on, SUID will be the UID of the owner of the file. Otherwise, SUID will be the RUID.

• A. pkg search gzip
• B. pkg info gzip
• C. pkg contents gzip
• D. pkginfo gzip
• E. yum list gzip

Answer: A

Explanation:
Use the pkg search command to search for packages whose data matches the specified pattern.
Like the pkg contents command, the pkg search command examines the contents of packages. While the pkg contents command returns the contents, the pkg search command returns the names of packages that match the query.

NEW QUESTION 20
A user account must be a member of a primary group, and may also be a member of one or more secondary groups. What is the maximum total number of groups that one user can concurrently belong to?

• A. 15
• B. 16
• C. 17
• D. 63
• E. 64
• F. 65
• G. The number of groups one user can concurrently belong to is unlimited in Solaris 11.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Each user belongs to a group that is referred to as the user’s primary group. The GID number, located in the user’s account entry within the /etc/passwd file, specifies the user’s primary group.
Each user can also belong to up to 15 additional groups, known as secondary groups. In the /etc/group file, you can add users to group entries, thus establishing the user’s secondary group affiliations.
Note (4 PSARC/2009/542):
his project proposes changing the maximum value for NGROUPS_MAX from 32 to 1024 by changing the definition of NGROUPS_UMAX from 32 to 1024.
The use for a larger number of groups is described in CR 4088757, particular in the case of Samba servers and ADS clients; the Samba servers map every SID to a Unix group. Users with more than 32 groups SIDs are common. We've seen reports varying from "64 is enough", "128 is absolutely enough" and "we've users with more 190 group SIDS).
NGROUPS_MAX as defined by different Unix versions are as follows (http://www.j3e.de/ngroups.html):
