CI/CD (Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment) is a practice that automates the process of building, testing, and deploying applications. This approach reduces manual intervention, ensuring code changes are integrated and tested frequently, leading to faster and more reliable application deployment.

The systemctl reload httpd command reloads the Apache HTTP server configuration without terminating any existing connections. This is ideal for applying configuration changes without disrupting the current web traffic, ensuring seamless operation.

The output shows that the system is running low on available memory and has heavily utilized swap space (1824 MB out of 2047 MB). This indicates that both RAM and swap are being exhausted, which can lead to performance degradation. The system is likely experiencing memory pressure and may require additional RAM or optimizations to reduce memory consumption.

The ping command shows that the Linux system can reach the DNS server at 192.168.2.2, so the DNS host is not down. The dig and nc commands show that the Linux system cannot connect to the DNS server on port 53, which is the standard port for DNS queries. This means that either the DNS service is not running on the DNS server, or there is a firewall or network device blocking the port 53 traffic. Therefore, the DNS service is currently not available or the corresponding port is blocked.References1: How To Troubleshoot DNS Client Issues in Linux - RootUsers2: 6 Best Tools to Troubleshoot DNS Issues in Linux - Tecmint3: How To Troubleshoot DNS in Linux - OrcaCore4: Fixing DNS Issues in Ubuntu 20.04 | DeviceTests
