Description
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to apply the enterprise wide operating system to system automation in a distributed computing environment as used in telecommunications applications.It applies to telecommunication engineers who manage automated systems within a telecommunications network including databases, files systems and user administration.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Operate an enterprise wide operating system
  • 1.1 Modify boot options by operating an enterprise wide operating system
  • 1.2 Shutdown a networked operating system using system commands with qualifiers
  • 1.3 Manage files using file management commands and wildcards and creating disk partitions and other media file systems
  • 1.4 Mount and unmount file systems using system commands
  • 1.5 Verify the integrity of file systems using system utilities
  • 1.6 Configure telecommunication applications by using system commands with special permission modes
  • 1.7 Critically analyse, evaluate and apply the enterprise wide operating system features to a given telecommunications multi-user application using distributed computing
2. Apply system functions
  • 2.1 Use the command line interface to interact with shells and commands to the telecommunications application on distributed computing
  • 2.2 Manage files by applying regular expressions with system functions
  • 2.3 Send text files and output streams through text utilities using commands
  • 2.4 Evaluate and apply enterprise wide operating system functions to a telecommunications application on distributed computing to create menu options
3. Manage user login environment and customisation
  • 3.1 Manage user and group accounts to the telecommunications application on distributed computing
  • 3.2 Change user and group profiles to allowed security access level using commands
  • 3.3 Scan log files for activity using commands
  • 3.4 Configure the user environment for setting user and global profiles
  • 3.5 Record the configuration settings
4. Manage system level functions
  • 4.1 Automate scheduling using the system ‘cron’ command
  • 4.2 Critically analyse the need for backup strategy in a telecommunications network application
  • 4.3 Plan a backup strategy to maintain redundancy of the system
  • 4.4 Configure the system to perform scheduled backing up the file system to various media
  • 4.5 Verify integrity of backup operations by restoring system using backup files
  • 4.6 Configure system log files for administration and security needs
