Server operations
Processes, services, nginx validation, and capacity signals.
What you will practice
Server admin; Service inspection; Nginx validation; Resource inspection.
Use the worked examples when needed, then test your understanding without them.
- 01Server adminInspect simulated processes, services, and web server config like a cautious admin.Practice
- 02Service inspectionCompare simulated service status and journal output before taking action.Practice
- 03Nginx validationRead training nginx config and validate it without making real server changes.Practice
- 04Resource inspectionRead simulated disk, memory, uptime, and directory usage signals.Practice
- 05Host network viewInspect simulated hostname, addresses, and listening sockets.Practice
- 06Service listList simulated units and check nginx activity.Practice
- 07Service filesInspect simulated unit files and journals together.Practice
- 08Nginx site mapInspect training nginx site layout and run a config test.Practice
