= Welcome to OPS235 - ''Introduction to Open System Servers'' =
{| width="100%" align="right" cellpadding="10"|- valign="top"| width="55%"|
== What This Course is About ==
<u>This course is the second in a series of courses about Linux technologies:</u>
:* ULI101 taught you to be a Linux ''user''. In OPS235, you will move from being Linux a ''user'' to being a Linux system ''administrator''.
:* As a system administrator, you will be responsible for installing, configuring, adjusting, maintaining, and troubleshooting the operation of computer systems. This is a lot of responsibility, and with that responsibility comes power. You will be able to change anything on the system, and you will also have the ability to damage or destroy the system.
:* In this course you use a removable disk tray an external SSD drive (USB 3) with the lab computers to set up a Linux system. You will also set up at least four additional Linux systems using "Virtual Machines", and therefore gain experience with different types of system configurations as well as setting up networking between systems.
:* Later courses (OPS335 and OPS435) teach you to administer Linux servers (web servers, DNS servers, FTP servers, file sharing servers) -- and to use more complex Python scripting to boost your system administration efficiency.
== Learning by Doing ==
Most of the learning in this course occurs through the hands-on problem solving that takes place in the eight labs and two assignments.
<u>Requirements for Success:</u>
:* It is very important to stay up-to-date with the coursework, and to practice until you have confidently mastered each task.
:* Carefully read ALL lab instructions and check your work regularly. The labs have been designed with backup safeguards to prevent the student from losing their work. On the other hand, students may lose their work if they fail to follow lab instructions or accidentally forget their removable hard disks in the workstation's hard disk bay drive!

If you use a mechanical hard drive, be careful not to drop it, and transport it in a padded container (e.g. wrapped in an old shirt).<br /><br />SSDs are becoming competitive in price, are faster, and are less susceptible to shock, so you may want to look for a deal on an SSD instead of a hard drive -- but check to ensure that your SSD will fit properly into your drive tray.<br /><br />Please tighten the drive screws securely to prevent the tray from jamming in the holder, or leave the screws off.<br /><br />|[[Image:hd-tray.jpg|thumb|right|180px|<b>Hard Disk in Disk Tray</b><br />At least <b>250 GB</b> (available at the Bookstore)]]|-!USB Flash Drive|At least 8GB, and maybe bigger depending on how many backups you make.
