The Linux administrator should choose Kubernetes for the new design that requires portability, high availability, and scalability in production using containerization. Kubernetes is an open-source platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications across clusters of nodes. Kubernetes provides features such as service discovery, load balancing, storage orchestration, self-healing, secret and configuration management, and batch execution. Kubernetes also supports multiple container runtimes, such as Docker, containerd, and CRI-O, making it portable across different platforms and clouds. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 18: Automating Tasks; What is Kubernetes? | Kubernetes

The tuned application is the best tool for dynamic tuning of kernel parameters, as it monitors the system and optimizes the performance under different workloads. It provides a number of predefined profiles for typical use cases, such as power saving, low latency, high throughput, virtual machine performance, and so on. It also allows users to create, modify, and delete profiles, and to switch between them on the fly. The tuned application uses the sysctl command and the configuration files in the /etc/sysctl.d/ directory to adjust the kernel parameters at runtime.

The renice command changes the scheduling priority of a running process. By using renice -n 15, the administrator lowers the priority of the backup process, making it less CPU-intensive and reducing its impact on other system services. A positive niceness value (e.g., 15) lowers the priority, allowing other processes to receive more CPU time.

The administrator should use the following three commands to resolve the issue of the root filesystem being full:

df -h /. This command will show the disk usage of the root filesystem in a human-readable format. The df command is a tool for reporting file system disk space usage. The -h option displays the sizes in powers of 1024 (e.g., 1K, 234M, 2G). The / specifies the root filesystem. The command df -h / will show the total size, used space, available space, and percentage of the root filesystem. This command will help the administrator identify the problem and plan the solution.

growpart /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv. This command will grow the partition that contains the root filesystem to the maximum size available. The growpart command is a tool for resizing partitions on Linux systems. The /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv is the device name of the partition, which is a logical volume managed by the Logical Volume Manager (LVM). The command growpart /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv will extend the partition to fill the disk space and increase the size of the root filesystem. This command will help the administrator solve the problem and free up space.

lvresize –L +10G -r /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv. This command will resize the logical volume that contains the root filesystem and add 10 GB of space. The lvresize command is a tool for resizing logical volumes on Linux systems. The -L option specifies the new size of the logical volume, in this case +10G, which means 10 GB more than the current size. The -r option resizes the underlying file system as well. The /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv is the device name of the logical volume, which is the same as the partition name. The command lvresize –L +10G -r /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv will increase the size of the logical volume and the root filesystem by 10 GB and free up space. This command will help the administrator solve the problem and free up space.

The other options are incorrect because they either do not affect the root filesystem (fdisk -1 /dev/sdb, pvcreate /dev/sdb, lsblk /dev/sda, or vgextend /dev/rootvg /dev/sdb) or do not use the correct syntax (fdisk -1 /dev/sdb instead of fdisk -l /dev/sdb or parted -l /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv instead of parted /dev/mapper/rootvg-rootlv print). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 10: Managing Storage, pages 318-319, 331-332.

The yum history undo last command allows the administrator to undo the most recent transaction, effectively removing the httpd package and any installed dependencies. This is the safest and easiest way to revert package installations in RPM-based systems using yum.

sysctl is used to modify kernel parameters at runtime. It is used for setting system settings related to networking, memory management, and other kernel options. These settings are stored in /etc/sysctl.conf for persistence across reboots.

The git checkout -b staging command creates a new branch called staging and switches to it. This is useful when you want to create a new branch locally and begin working on it. The -b flag is used to create the branch if it doesn’t exist.

The command ssh -i "ABC-key.pem" root@10.0.0.1 would allow the administrator to connect securely to the remote server in order to install application software. The ssh command is a tool for establishing secure and encrypted connections between remote systems. The -i option specifies the identity file that contains the private key for key-based authentication. The "ABC-key.pem" is the name of the identity file that contains the private key. The root@10.0.0.1 is the username and the IP address of the remote server. The command ssh -i "ABC-key.pem" root@10.0.0.1 will connect to the remote server using the private key and allow the administrator to install application software. This is the correct command to use to connect securely to the remote server. The other options are incorrect because they either do not use key-based authentication (sftp root@10.0.0.1 or telnet 10.0.0.1 80) or do not use the correct syntax for the command (scp "ABC-key.pem" root@10.0.0.1 instead of scp -i "ABC-key.pem" root@10.0.0.1 or sftp "ABC-key.pem" root@10.0.0.1 instead of sftp -i "ABC-key.pem" root@10.0.0.1). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 17: Implementing Basic Security, page 513.
