Linux Command Line and Shell Scripting Techniques

Master practical aspects of the Linux command line and then use it as a part of the shell scripting process

By: Vedran Dakic,Jasmin Redzepagic

Practical and actionable recipes for using shell and command-line scripting on your Linux OS with confidence Key FeaturesLearn how to use the command line and write and debug Linux Shell scriptsAutomate complex repetitive tasks and backups, and learn networking and securityA practical approach to system administration, and virtual machine and software managementBook Description Linux Command Line and Shell Scripting Techniques begins by taking you through the basics of the shell and command-line utilities. You'll start by exploring shell commands for file, directory, service, package, and process management. Next, you'll learn about networking - network, firewall and DNS client configuration, ssh, scp, rsync, and vsftpd, as well as some network troubleshooting tools. You'll also focus on using the command line to find and manipulate text content, via commands such as cut, egrep, and sed. As you progress, you'll learn how to use shell scripting. You'll understand the basics - input and output, along with various programming concepts such as loops, variables, arguments, functions, and arrays. Later, you'll learn about shell script interaction and troubleshooting, before covering a wide range of examples of complete shell scripts, varying from network and firewall configuration, through to backup and concepts for creating live environments. This includes examples of performing scripted virtual machine installation and administration, LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP) stack provisioning and bulk user creation for testing environments. By the end of this Linux book, you'll have gained the knowledge and confidence you need to use shell and command-line scripts. What you will learnGet an introduction to the command line, text editors, and shell scriptingFocus on regular expressions, file handling, and automating complex tasksAutomate common administrative tasksBecome well-versed with networking and system security scriptingGet to grips with repository management and network-based file synchronizationUse loops, arguments, functions, and arrays for task automationWho this book is for This book is for anyone looking to learn about Linux administration via CLI and scripting. Those with no Linux command-line interface (CLI) experience will benefit from it by learning from scratch. More experienced Linux administrators or engineers will also find this book useful, as it will help them organize their knowledge, fill in any gaps, and work efficiently with shell scripts to increase productivity.

By: Vedran Dakic,Humble Devassy Chirammal,Prasad Mukhedkar,Anil Vettathu

Learn how to configure, automate, orchestrate, troubleshoot, and monitor KVM-based environments capable of scaling to private and hybrid cloud models Key FeaturesGain expert insights into Linux virtualization and the KVM ecosystem with this comprehensive guideLearn to use various Linux tools such as QEMU, oVirt, libvirt, Cloud-Init, and Cloudbase-InitScale, monitor, and troubleshoot your VMs on various platforms, including OpenStack and AWSBook Description Kernel-based Virtual Machine (KVM) enables you to virtualize your data center by transforming your Linux operating system into a powerful hypervisor that allows you to manage multiple operating systems with minimal fuss. With this book, you'll gain insights into configuring, troubleshooting, and fixing bugs in KVM virtualization and related software. This second edition of Mastering KVM Virtualization is updated to cover the latest developments in the core KVM components - libvirt and QEMU. Starting with the basics of Linux virtualization, you'll explore VM lifecycle management and migration techniques. You'll then learn how to use SPICE and VNC protocols while creating VMs and discover best practices for using snapshots. As you progress, you'll integrate third-party tools with Ansible for automation and orchestration. You'll also learn to scale out and monitor your environments, and will cover oVirt, OpenStack, Eucalyptus, AWS, and ELK stack. Throughout the book, you'll find out more about tools such as Cloud-Init and Cloudbase-Init. Finally, you'll be taken through the performance tuning and troubleshooting guidelines for KVM-based virtual machines and a hypervisor. By the end of this book, you'll be well-versed with KVM virtualization and the tools and technologies needed to build and manage diverse virtualization environments. What you will learnImplement KVM virtualization using libvirt and oVirtDelve into KVM storage and networkUnderstand snapshots, templates, and live migration featuresGet to grips with managing, scaling, and optimizing the KVM ecosystemDiscover how to tune and optimize KVM virtualization hostsAdopt best practices for KVM platform troubleshootingWho this book is for If you are a systems administrator, DevOps practitioner, or developer with Linux experience looking to sharpen your open-source virtualization skills, this virtualization book is for you. Prior understanding of the Linux command line and virtualization is required before getting started with this book.
