Has anyone considered teaching a more in depth version of awk (gawk). At the end of my classes I hand out a more in depth tutorial of both sed and awk.
We could also consider some perl scripting in 102. Perl is designed for administration and reporting. We could move bash scripting to 101. I believe a basic understanding of Bash scripting would provide students with a useful tool.

This exactly illustrates my point that SQL as such has nothing to do with Linux system administration, but is "just another application domain". In this case: use of computers for business applications. There are so many other uses for a computer, even with Linux :-) The Linux OS is the common denominator under a plethora of different application domains: business administration, telecom, science, numerical control, web serving, ... ... ... I.m.h.o. the LPI certification should restrict itself to this common denominator under all application domains. -- Hendrik-Jan Thomassen <h...@atcomputing.nl> AT Computing Linux/UNIXperts, opleiders & oplossers Tel +31 24 352 72 82 Kerkenbos 1238 Tel cursussecretariaat: +31 24 352 72 72 6546 BE Nijmegen Fax +31 24 352 72 92 i...@atcomputing.nl www.atcomputing.nl 'If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.' ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2015 20:30:48 +0100 From: Henk Snel <henk.s...@tenict.nl> Subject: Re: [lpi-examdev] SQL in 101 To: "This is the lpi-examdev mailing list." <lpi-examdev@lpi.org> Message-ID: <cajpjjoj3o0ueto779iv0+gn3uf7aabinhzaw3nx4erryiuh...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" +1 Met vriendelijke groeten, *Henk Snel* Storage Consultant Mobiel: +31 (0) 653493434 E-mail: henk.s...@tenict.nl <http://www.linkedin.com/in/henksnel> [image: Logo] Dodeweg 6c 3832 RC Leusden http://www.tenict.nl On Wed, Feb 11, 2015 at 6:45 PM, Hendrik Jan Thomassen <h...@atcomputing.nl> wrote: > Matthew Rice wrote: > > > > My own personal reasons for not hating it in the objectives is that > > I've seen a few times where "management" want to get reports out of > > a DB and they turn to the techs to help them with that task. in > > particular, having Excel/*Office connecting to the DB and then > > trying to figure out some simple queries. > > This exactly illustrates my point that SQL as such has nothing to do > with Linux system administration, but is "just another application > domain".

I.e., MQ and SQL are almost becoming "mandatory services" for IaaS, and unavoidable. That said, I'd still argue it's LPIC-2, for now. - bjs On Wed, Feb 11, 2015 at 12:45 PM, Hendrik Jan Thomassen <h...@atcomputing.nl> wrote: > Matthew Rice wrote: >> >> My own personal reasons for not hating it in the objectives is that >> I've seen a few times where "management" want to get reports out of a >> DB and they turn to the techs to help them with that task. in >> particular, having Excel/*Office connecting to the DB and then trying >> to figure out some simple queries. > > This exactly illustrates my point that SQL as such has nothing to do > with Linux system administration, but is "just another application > domain".

But since other services like Apache are treated in LPIC-2, maybe SQL (along with some specific service management of packages like MySQL or MariaDB), should also be include in LPIC-2 and not in LPIC-1.
