Novell Certified Linux Professional (CLP) — Question 11

To which process does the process ID 1 always belong on SLES12?

Answer options

• A. boot
• B. kernel (vmlinuz)
• C. init
• D. systemd
• E. X server
• F. cron

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, systemd, as it is responsible for initializing system components and is assigned process ID 1. While init was traditionally the first process, in SLES12, systemd has replaced it, rendering options C, A, B, E, and F incorrect in this context.
