This article mainly explains "how to maintain the Linux server". The content in the article is simple and clear, and it is easy to learn and understand. Please follow the editor's train of thought to study and learn how to maintain the Linux server.

First, keep the software package up to date

The software package for the Linux server is constantly being upgraded as well as patches for the Windwos operating system. The upgrade of Linux server software has two main purposes. One is to enhance the function of the software, and the other is to solve some known security vulnerabilities. For example, after the company knows the new security loophole, it will immediately research and develop the corresponding solution, and then solve it in the new version of the software package. For this reason, the system administrator must timely understand the latest information of the software package and upgrade the software package in time to keep the package up-to-date.

Second, create a floppy disk boot disk

Although floppy disks are less and less used nowadays, there are still floppy drives in some large servers, such as IBM servers. This is mainly because sometimes some complex problems can be solved through floppy drives. For this reason, after the deployment of the Linux server, it is best to establish a floppy boot disk, which can be used as an emergency when needed.

For example, sometimes the system administrator may encounter some inexplicable problems in the installation process, such as the installation is stuck in the middle for many times and cannot be installed successfully. This is most likely due to the problem of installing the image. At this point, the system administrator needs a modified floppy disk image. Although this situation is rare, it is relatively easy to encounter when deploying larger servers. When faced with this situation, the system administrator should not blindly download the installation image or take other time-consuming and laborious actions, you can first use the standard installation floppy disk to start the installation. Maybe you can solve the problem during the installation process.

It is precisely because the floppy disk boot disk still plays a very important role in the maintenance of the Linux server, it also provides many methods to create the floppy disk boot disk. Such as creating a floppy disk during installation and so on. The creation method of these boot disks is relatively conventional, so the author will not expand the description. The editor is here to introduce a way to create a floppy boot disk in the Windows environment. This is mainly because most system administrators still have a computer with a Windwos operating system on hand. Instead, the Linux operating system is used as a server. The servers are placed in fixed places, and some are not even equipped with monitors, so it is troublesome to create a floppy boot disk on the Linux server. So here I push to create a floppy boot disk through the Windwos client. The tools used here only need the installation disk.

Thank you for your reading, the above is the content of "how to maintain the Linux server". After the study of this article, I believe you have a deeper understanding of how to maintain the Linux server, and the specific use needs to be verified in practice. Here is, the editor will push for you more related knowledge points of the article, welcome to follow!
