I really enjoy the troubleshooting challenges. They give me a way to test my skills with something that is close to a real world problem. 

So, anything that allows me to get 'hands-on' with a problem, without having to do an internet search for help, is a good test of the skills I have learnt.

It would be great if there was a way of randomly generating troubleshooting challenges or at least a large selection of challenges to try. 

Thanks

I agree. Solving a real issue in the production environment, where every minute counts, is the best learning process. Under stress and conditions, you learn the fastest

Hello

I enjoy the troubleshooting challenges, such as the following ones posted here:

Solved: Take the latest RHEL Troubleshooting Challenge and... - Red Hat Learning Community

These are similar to the Red Hat Learning Subscription labs, where you have a series of tasks to solve in order to fix a problem.

For example; getting a web server up and running, which requires you to:

  1. Examine the web server config
  2. Identify the ports
  3. Apply SE Linux port labelling
  4. Configure firewall rules
  5. Create a content directory and content
  6. Apply the appropriate SE Linux file contexts

Similar challenges for disk/mount problems, SSH server configurations, container issues and other troubleshooting type activitites are a good way to test the skills you have learnt in training. 

I think that applying the technical skills with a problem solving mindset is a great way to test your abilities as a professional engineer.

Hope this helps

Interesting enough this was not the result I was expecting, but makes complete sense. The foundation is systems here and I guess expecting something else was silly. I haven't touched any of the learning material, but sounds like a grade A job incorporating multi-facet challenges for systems administration and hands on scenarios. I found that diving in deep without the ability to ask for help and / or have resource material is the best way to go about a system if you truly want to understand it fundamentally, while this is a big task for most systems, you can subjectively break linux or anything else into several counterparts varying in complexities, entirely on how you feel, so the deep end in reality doesn't have to be that deep. Anyway, I was curious to know what everyone thought of the enterprise applications development / fundamentals, then realized they're from 2018-2019 (JB183)(DO292)(JB427) and some other blogs I found via search that don't have identifiers / terms. Then stumbled into (AD141) which was a few years back too, so now I'm curious to know what kind of programming studies you have for at least bash / shell scripting. The amount of usefulness a systems administrator can get from a few lines of shell, yeah it changes the game. I'm sure everyone would love it, maybe even more in depth development guides where the language can vary as far as dynamically typed perhaps, I guess the main ones would be C# (Relfection) - little more advanced, but could work it out, Python, Ruby, Groovy, Java (Reflection) - Easier imo than C#, JavaScript, Lua, Perl (maybe), PHP (maybe). Then even more in depth targeted outcome guides where you go from point A to point B with something structuring a full life cycle. Even a development environment tutorial would be a great for most people I think, start them off in nano or vim haha. Honestly I think most beginner developers stepping foot into the "enterprise" side of things could use an entire overview of that side of the coin and make it less dawnting when in reality it's mainly principal, ethics, and a strict governance of what you're doing - which sounds dawnting, but is easily broken down to expectations of an enterprise solution. Knowing these things out of the gate and having these kind of hands on learning avenues like you have for systems adminstration would definitely change the game. Also I will always stay true to C so whatever you got for that send it on out, I'll totally be down to review it. I may have completely lost topic here and maybe out of line, but I'm gonna hit the reply button anyway. I'm down to ellaborate or discuss any part.
