Red Hat System Administration II
Linux Training Overview

This course will present the commands and methods needed to setup and manage a RHEL 8 system. The course will also use a problem solving approach in the lab exercises to teach system administrators advanced topics, for long-term management of the system.

This course is the second preparation course for the RHCSA 8 certification examination.

Systems: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Version 78(all update levels)

Linux Training Prerequisites

It is assumed that the participant has successfully completed the Red Hat System Administration I course, or has equivalent system administration experience on a RHEL 7 or 8 server.

Linux Training Course duration

This course normally requires five (5) days, approximately 50% lecture, and 50% hands-on commands and lab exercises. If this class is being used as a preparation for the RHCSA 8 examination, a practice exam will be part of the afternoon session on the fifth day.

Linux Training Course Objectives

On completion of this course, a systems administrator should be able to install, update, and boot the RHEL 8 operating system; set up user accounts and directories; prepare queues for use; perform backups for integrity and performance reasons; monitor the system for performance and do basic setup of network software and capabilities.
