Rhcsa certification

[Ksahil]

Dear All,

Hoping all are doing great!!.

Just wanted to know while doing the exam of Rhcsa. The machine provided us in the exam whether it was installed in GUI mode or minimal mode.

Observation: In GUI mode after pressing the TAB key command gets auto-completing. But in minimal mode sometimes after pressing TAB key command not getting completing.

Regardless on how the exam system is configured (which I don't know), you can always install the bash-completion package and reopen the shell to get the command completion.

Hi @Ksahil ,

Thanks for reaching out !
As Fran mentioned, for many Linux distributions, including CentOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux , you can enable the auto command completion with tab key - by installing the package "bash-completion" ( yum install bash-completion ).

This package installs a bash completion script in /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh . This script is automatically loaded when you start a new terminal session or you can use command :  "source /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh"  which then enables bash completion for many common commands and utilities.

Dear @Chetan_Tiwary_ , Thank you for replying and giving your valuable time as well information. but as per the exam point of view.

Can we able to install bash-completion while attempting the exam?

Or it will be pre-install on the exam terminal.

Hi,

My understanding is that all the resource required to solve the exam should be made available.

Generally, there are full (my understnadin is the full ISO DVD) repositories made available. Surely the bash-completion package is available among one of them.
