CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-004) — Question 22

A systems administrator has deployed a Linux server based on an Anaconda process with all packages and custom configurations necessary to install a web server role.
Which of the following could be used to install more Linux servers with the same characteristics?

Answer options

• A. /etc/sysconfig/anaconda.cfg
• B. /root/anaconda.auto
• C. /root/anaconda-ks.cfg
• D. /etc/sysconfig/installation.cfg

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is /root/anaconda-ks.cfg, which is a Kickstart file that automates the installation process for additional servers, ensuring they have the same configurations and packages. The other options do not serve this purpose: /etc/sysconfig/anaconda.cfg and /etc/sysconfig/installation.cfg are related to system configuration, while /root/anaconda.auto is used for automated installations but not specifically for reproducing the setup.
