QuestionQ114

System Administration Fundamentals

A system administrator must stop every running process and halt the system, while keeping the power on for additional diagnostics. Which command achieves this?

  • A shutdown -h now
  • B systemctl suspend
  • C poweroff
  • D halt
Explanation

halt terminates the running system and places it in a halted state without requesting a power-off. System shutdown handling stops remaining processes before carrying out the selected halt action.
