I participated in the "Linux System Administration Basics Seminar @ Osaka."

My name is Nakagawa from the System Solutions Department.
recently attended Linux System Administration Basics Seminar hosted by LPI-Japan

The reason I decided to participate was because I was interested in external seminars,
wanted to increase my basic knowledge about Linux, and wanted to review the knowledge I learned during the LPIC exam.

Seminar Content

The contents of this seminar were as follows:

• Managing root privileges
• Network Settings
• Service Management
• Package Management
• System Monitoring
• Log Management

The lecturer was
Toru Miyahara, CEO of Biginet Co., Ltd. He is also involved in the writing of the "Standard Textbook for Linux System Administration," which was used as the text for this seminar.

I obtained the LPIC LEVEL 1 certification last year, but by attending this seminar I was able to gain a lot of new knowledge

• How to log in to a server using SSH
• Service startup settings for CestOS 7.0
• Notes on MAC address settings when duplicating virtual servers

I learned a lot about things I often deal with in my work, as well as important points for my future work.
There were explanations and solutions to problems that took a long time to resolve in the past, and
I wish I had taken the course sooner.

This is what the seminar looked like

I found the content on system monitoring particularly interesting.
I was given a detailed explanation of the definition of CPU load, which I often use in my work, and how to isolate faults.
Learning how to isolate faults from a different perspective than usual was a good opportunity to broaden my horizons.

By the way, at the back of the lecture room
there were rows of Linux-related books and texts used in technical analysis seminars.

 

I was surprised at the number of related books!

Conclusion

This time, the seminar was held in a lecture format, but
there are also seminars where participants can bring their laptops and proceed while building a server.
In addition to Linux systems, there are also many technical explanations related to the LPIC exam.
I will actively participate in the next seminar as well to deepen my knowledge of Linux.
