Video#1: Create your own Practice Lab for Linux System Engineer Real-Time Tasks in 2022
Kickstart your Linux System Engineer Journey ! Learn to set up your own practice lab in you PC or laptop to practice real-time Linux System Engineering tasks.
In this video, you will learn:
To set up practice environment for Linux System Engineer and
To solve some of the basic tasks in the Linux servers that includes
o Remote Access using SSH
o Hostname configuration
o Static IP address configuration
o Hostname resolution
o Create new user with password, and
o Allow super user privilege to the users.
Before actually beginning the setup and configuration, let’s quickly understand how the practice environment will be.
Since we are going to create the practice lab in a virtual environment, we will use one of the virtualization software which is also known as a hypervisor. The hypervisor we are going to use is VMWare workstation. You can download and install the vmware workstation from the internet, if you already don’t have this installed on your PC. Then you are required to create your custom NAT network or you can simply use the default NAT network.
Next we will create four virtual machines—one to be used as a workstation and other three to be used as application and database servers. All the virtual machines will run CentOS operating system; the workstation will have centos workstation which is a user-friendly centos desktop system for laptops and PCs. The workstation will be used to access the servers remotely via the SSH while the other three servers will be configured to run different services to perform different tasks.
Out of the three servers, two are to be used as the application servers and one is to be used as a database server. A the time of assigning tasks to the system administrator, it will be clearly stated that on which server what task need to be performed.
