The lvs command can be used to obtain a list of all volumes that are part of a volume group. This command will display information such as the name, size, attributes, and volume group of each logical volume in the system. The vgs command can be used to obtain a list of all volume groups in the system, not the volumes. The fdisk -1 command is invalid, as -1 is not a valid option for fdisk. The pvs command can be used to obtain a list of all physical volumes in the system, not the volumes. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 14: Managing Disk Storage, page 461.

The slowness is caused by the CPU being overloaded. The iostat command shows that the CPU utilization is 100%, which means that there are more processes competing for CPU time than the CPU can handle. The other options are incorrect because:

The system is not running out of swap space, as shown by the iostat command, which shows that there is no swap activity (si and so columns are zero).

The memory is not exhausted, as shown by the free -m command, which shows that there is still available memory (avail column) and free buffer/cache memory (buff/cache column).

The processes are not paging, as shown by the vmstat command, which shows that there are no major page faults (majflt column) and no swap activity (si and so columns). References: CompTIA Linux+ Study Guide, Fourth Edition, page 417-419, 424-425.

To unlock an account that has been locked due to login failures, the administrator can use the command pam_tally2 --user=dev2 --reset (D). This will reset the failure counter for the user “dev2” and allow the user to log in again. The other commands will not unlock the account, but either display or increase the failure count. References:

 The process that will accomplish the task of creating a custom script to run at boot as part of the system services is:

Create a unit file in the /etc/systemd/system/ directory. A unit file is a configuration file that defines the properties and behavior of a systemd service. The systemd is a system and service manager that controls the startup and operation of Linux systems. The /etc/systemd/system/ directory is the location where the administrator can create and store custom unit files. The unit file should have a name that matches the name of the script, such as cleanup.service, and should contain the following sections and options:

[Unit]: This section provides the general information about the service, such as the description, dependencies, and conditions. The administrator should specify the following options in this section:

Description: A brief description of the service, such as “Custom cleanup script”.

After: The name of another unit that this service should start after, such as “network.target”.

ConditionPathExists: The path of the file or directory that must exist for the service to start, such as “/opt/scripts/cleanup.sh”.

[Service]: This section defines how the service should be started and stopped, and what commands should be executed. The administrator should specify the following options in this section:

Type: The type of the service, such as “oneshot”, which means that the service will run once and then exit.

ExecStart: The command that will start the service, such as “/bin/bash /opt/scripts/cleanup.sh”.

RemainAfterExit: A boolean value that indicates whether the service should remain active after the command exits, such as “yes”.

[Install]: This section defines how the service should be enabled and under what circumstances it should be started. The administrator should specify the following option in this section:

WantedBy: The name of another unit that wants this service to be started, such as “multi-user.target”, which means that the service will be started when the system reaches the multi-user mode.

Run the command systemct1 enable cleanup. This command will enable the service and create the necessary symbolic links to start the service at boot.

Run the command systemct1 is-enabled cleanup. This command will check the status of the service and confirm that it is enabled.

This process will create a custom script, cleanup.sh, to run at boot as part of the system services. This is the correct process to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either use the wrong directory for the unit file (/etc/default/, /etc/skel/, or /etc/sysctl.d/) or do not create a unit file at all. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 15: Managing System Services, pages 457-459.
