The command sudo fdisk -l should be issued to verify the device name of the partition. The sudo command allows the administrator to run commands as the superuser or another user. The fdisk command is a tool for manipulating disk partitions on Linux systems. The -l option lists the partitions on all disks or a specific disk. The command sudo fdisk -l will show the device names, sizes, types, and other information of the partitions on all disks. The administrator can identify the device name of the partition by looking at the output. This is the correct command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either do not list the partitions (sudo fdisk /dev/sda or sudo fdisk -h) or do not exist (sudo fdisk -s /dev/sda). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 10: Managing Storage, page 317.

The command chattr +a /opt/app/logs will ensure the log file can only be written into without removing previous entries. The chattr command is a tool for changing file attributes on Linux file systems. The +a option sets the append-only attribute, which means that the file can only be opened in append mode for writing. This prevents the file from being modified, deleted, or renamed. This is the best command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either set the wrong attributes (+d, +i, or +c) or do not affect the file at all (-a). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 11: Managing Files and Directories, page 357.

The command that the administrator should run to ensure that both Java 7 and Java 8 are locally available for developers to use when deploying containers is docker image pull java:7. This command will use the docker image pull subcommand to download the java:7 image from Docker Hub, which is the default registry for Docker images. The java:7 image contains Java 7 installed on a Debian-based Linux system. The administrator can also specify a different registry by using the syntax registry/repository:tag.

The other options are not correct commands for ensuring that both Java 7 and Java 8 are locally available for developers to use when deploying containers. The docker image load java:7 command will load an image from a tar archive or STDIN, not from a registry. The docker image import java:7 command will create a new filesystem image from the contents of a tarball, not from a registry. The docker image build java:7 command will build an image from a Dockerfile, not from a registry. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 18: Automating Tasks; docker image pull | Docker Docs

The command chmod 755 filename.log should be used to set filename.log permissions to -rwxr--r--. The chmod command is a tool for changing file permissions on Linux file systems. The permissions can be specified in octal notation, where each digit represents the permissions for the owner, group, and others respectively. The permissions are encoded as follows:

0: no permission

1: execute permission

2: write permission

4: read permission

5: read and execute permissions (4 + 1)

6: read and write permissions (4 + 2)

7: read, write, and execute permissions (4 + 2 + 1)

The command chmod 755 filename.log will set the permissions to -rwxr--r--, which means that the owner has read, write, and execute permissions (7), the group has read and execute permissions (5), and others have read and execute permissions (5). This is the correct command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either set the wrong permissions (chmod 640, chmod 740, or chmod 744) or do not exist (chmod -G). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 11: Managing Files and Directories, page 345.
