The systemd is a system and service manager for Linux systems that provides a standard way to control and monitor system services. The systemd uses various commands and tools to manage and troubleshoot system services, such as systemct1, sysctl, and journalctl. The systemct1 command is used to start, stop, enable, disable, restart, reload, status, and list system services. The sysctl command is used to configure kernel parameters at runtime. The journalctl command is used to view and filter the logs of system services.

To investigate a service that is not starting up, the administrator can use the journalctl command with the -xu option. The -x option enables verbose output that includes explanatory text and priority information. The -u option filters the output by a specific unit name, such as network.service. Therefore, the command journalctl -xu network will show detailed logs of the network service, which can help identify the cause of the failure. The statement D is correct.

The statements A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not provide more details about the failing service. The systemct1 analyze network command does not exist. The systemct1 info network command shows basic information about the network unit, such as description, load state, active state, sub state, and main PID. The sysctl -a network command shows all kernel parameters related to network settings. References: [How to Use Systemd to Manage System Services]

The snap list command lists all installed Snap packages on the system. Snap is a package management system that is used for installing and managing software packages in Linux. It shows information about the installed Snap packages, including the version, publisher, and whether the package is active.

The issue is caused by the lack of a default route defined in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s3 file. A default route is a special route that specifies where to send packets that do not match any other routes in the routing table. Without a default route, the server will not be able to communicate with hosts outside its local network. The default route is usually configured with the GATEWAY option in the network interface configuration file. For example, to set the default gateway to 192.168.1.1, the file should contain:

GATEWAY=192.168.1.1

The other options are not causing the issue. The DNS address is not commented out in the configuration file, it is specified with the DNS1 option. The search entry in the /etc/resolv.conf file is correct, it specifies the domain name to append to unqualified hostnames. Wired connection 1 is online, as indicated by the ONBOOT=yes option and the output of ip link show enp0s3 command. References: Configuring IP Networking with nmcli; Configuring IP Networking with ifcfg Files

To retrieve the scripts from a repository and make them available on a local workstation, the junior Linux administrator can use the command git clone ©. This will create a copy of the repository on the local machine, including all the scripts and history. The other commands will not clone the repository, but either fetch, checkout, or branch from an existing repository. References:
