SK0-005 practice question 4

Question

A user cannot save large files to a directory on a Linux server that was accepting smaller files a few minutes ago. Which of the following commands should a technician use to identify the issue?
  • A. pvdisplay
  • B. mount
  • C. df -h Correct
  • D. fdisk -l

Explanation

Small files still save but large ones fail, so the file system holding the directory is most likely running out of free space. The df -h command shows used and available space for each mounted file system in human-readable units. pvdisplay shows LVM physical volume details, mount lists mount points and options, and fdisk -l lists partition tables, so none of them directly shows how much free space is left.
