Managing Linux storage devices, partitions, and file systems is a required skill for Linux technicians. Most Linux distributions have similar file system hierarchies, and performance and fault tolerance improvements can be realized by configuring redundant array of inexpensive disks (RAID) disk levels. Linux storage is not limited to local mass storage devices but can also include network storage. Begin this course by discovering how Linux treats mass storage devices, partitions, and file system types. Then you will examine the Linux file system hierarchy standard and learn when to use specific Linux file system management commands, and how to partition and format Linux storage. Next, you will learn how to mount and unmount Linux file systems, and when to use hard and soft, or symbolic, links. Finally, you will explore how to implement RAID disk levels in Linux, and you will work with Linux logical volume management (LVM) and network storage using an Internet Small Computer Systems Interface (iSCSI). This course can be used to prepare for the Linux+ XK0-005 certification exam.
