Administering Linux servers can often involve laborious and repetitive tasks; being able to encapsulate those tasks in scripts saves you time and your work becomes more reliable. In this course, RHEL 8: Creating Shell Scripts, you’ll learn to create shell scripts saving you both valuable time and effort. First, you’ll explore the script header, or shebang, and where scripts need to be located. Next, you’ll discover more advanced syntax by using logic and loops to conditionally process commands. Finally, you’ll learn how to use and create functions within your scripts, allowing for more effective and readable solutions. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Linux bash scripting to automate the creation of user accounts and be able to repurpose the script for you own needs.
