Here you will learn the core skills required to install, configure, and manage SLES 11, that is, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.
The book provides you with several unique benefits.
Unique Benefit: SLES Compared To RHEL.
If you are an existing RHEL (Red Hat Enterprise Linux) Admin, then you will enjoy how each chapter compares SLES to RHEL. You will find that many of your existing RHEL skills transfer to SLES.
Unique Benefit: Command-Line Focus.
Instead of focusing on YaST, the SLES-specific Admin Tool, each chapter shows the command-line way of doing admin. Experienced Admins know that doing admin from the command-line gives you: (1) a deeper understanding of how admin really works; and (2) gives you Admin skills that work on many GNU/Linux distributions, not just SLES.
Unique Benefit: Step-By-Step Commands.
Each chapter shows, step-by-step, how to perform the Admin commands. You will see the exact commands that are executed, including the output of the commands.
If you are a beginning admin, the many examples provide you a way to rapidly learn new skills.
If you are an experienced admin, the many examples provide a quick refresh or reminder of skills that you already know.
