CompTIA XK0-005 Exam Dumps - Actual Questions Answers

To troubleshoot a storage capacity issue on a server without a specific mount point or directory, two commands that would be most helpful are df and du. The df command displays information about disk space usage on all mounted filesystems, including their size, used space, available space, and percentage of usage. The du command displays disk space usage by files and directories in a given path, which can help identify large files or directories that may be taking up too much space. The other commands are incorrect because they either do not show disk space usage, or they are used for other purposes such as partitioning, formatting, checking, mounting, copying, or listing files.

The best command to use to improve the latency issue is D. # echo ‘net.core.rmem max = 12500000’ >> /etc/sysctl.conf # echo ‘net.core.wmem_max = 12500000’ >> /etc/sysctl.conf # sysctl -p. This command will increase the size of the receive and send buffers for the network interface, which can improve the network performance and reduce packet loss. The sysctl command will apply the changes to the kernel parameters without rebooting the system.

The other commands are either incorrect or not suitable for this task. For example:

A. # echo ‘net.core.net_backlog = 5000000’ >> /etc/sysctl.conf # sysctl -p # systemctl daemon-reload will try to increase the backlog queue for incoming connections, but this is not relevant for the latency issue. The systemctl daemon-reload command is also unnecessary, as it only reloads the systemd configuration files, not the kernel parameters.

B. # ifdown eth0 # ip link set dev eth0 mtu 800 # ifup eth0 will try to change the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the network interface to 800 bytes, but this is too low and may cause fragmentation and performance degradation. The default MTU for Ethernet is 1500 bytes, and it should not be changed unless there is a specific reason.

C. # systemctl stop network # ethtool -g eth0 512 # systemctl start network will try to change the ring buffer size of the network interface to 512, but this is too small and may cause packet drops and latency spikes. The default ring buffer size for Ethernet is usually 4096 or higher, and it should be increased if there is a high network traffic.

Podman exec -ti app /bin/sh allows the Linux administrator to enter the running container and analyze the logs that are stored inside. This command uses the podman tool, which is a daemonless container engine that can run and manage containers on Linux systems. The exec option executes a command inside an existing container, in this case app, which is the name of the container that runs the failing application. The -ti option allocates a pseudo-TTY and keeps STDIN open, allowing for interactive shell access to the container. The /bin/sh argument specifies the shell command to run inside the container, which can be used to view and manipulate the log files.

The other options are not correct commands for entering a running container and analyzing the logs. Docker run -ti app /bin/sh creates a new container from the app image and runs the /bin/sh command inside it, but does not enter the existing container that runs the failing application. Podman run -d app /bin/bash also creates a new container from the app image and runs the /bin/bash command inside it, but does so in detached mode, meaning that it runs in the background without interactive shell access. Docker exec -d app /bin/bash executes the /bin/bash command inside the existing app container, but also does so in detached mode, without interactive shell access.
