IT-255-T4687 Intro to Linux Operating Sys 20EW4 4-2 Final Project Milestone One: Navigation and Tasks

IT 255 Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric
Overview: In this milestone, you will demonstrate your ability to navigate the Linux directory structure and run common tasks. Complete this milestone in one
session to confirm that the history log file that you will create contains all of the commands used. If you log out before you complete this milestone, your
command history will be reset. Review the Final Project Guidelines and Rubric document to see how this milestone will prepare you for that assignment.
You will complete this project in the Codio unit titled “Milestone 1: Tasks and Navigation.” When you complete this milestone, you will download a copy of your
script and upload it to Brightspace. Refer to the Codio instruction set for information on how to download your history log file.
Prompt: Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Navigate: The first step that you will provide evidence for in your log file is to view the following using Linux commands:
a. Current directory b. Current user
II. File Permissions: Locate the “whoownsme.txt” file and confirm that all users have the ability to execute the file.
III. Create Files: Demonstrate your ability to utilize various Linux commands to create text files in unique ways. Create these files in the workspace directory.
Ensure the commands in your log file show that your text files were created with two different methods. Create the following files:
a. A text file using the vi editor that includes a paragraph of text explaining what you believe is the most complicated part of the final project
b. A text file showing the current month, day, and time (title this file Time_File.txt)
IV. In the workspace directory, create a new directory titled Milestone_Files.
V. Modify and Move: Utilize Linux commands to rename files and move them to the Milestone_Files directory. Add “_MOVED” to the end of the file name.
Remember that your modified files should use an appropriate naming convention such as “XXXX_XXXX_MOVED.txt.”
VI. Create a log file of all the commands you have utilized to this point. Title this file Log_File.txt and download it for submission.
Rubric
Guidelines for Submission: Confirm that your history log file contains all of the commands that you utilized in this milestone. Download and submit your history
log file.

Critical Elements Proficient (100%) Needs Improvement (70%) Not Evident (0%) Value
File Permissions Located the whoownsme.txt file and
confirmed that all users have the ability
to execute the file
Located the whoownsme.txt file but did
not confirm that all users have the
ability to execute the file
Did not locate the whoownsme.txt file 16
Create Files Files were created using two different
methods, one method being the vi
editor, and they were placed in the
workspace directory
Files were created, but two different
methods were not used, or the vi editor
was not used
Files were not created 16
New Directory A directory titled Milestone_Files was
created in the workspace directory
A directory titled Milestone_Files was
created, but it was not created in the
workspace directory
A directory was not created 16
Modify and Move Moved the files from the workspace
directory to the “Milestone_Files”
directory and added the suffix
“_MOVED”
Moved and modified files, but the task
execution is incomplete or inaccurate
Did not move or modify files 16
Create a Log File Utilized a Linux command to create a
log file that contains all of the
commands utilized to this point, and
ensured all of the commands utilized in
critical elements I through V are listed
Utilized a Linux command to create a
log file, but log file does not contain all
of the commands utilized to this point
Did not utilize a Linux command to
create a log file that contains all of the
commands utilized to this point, and did
not ensure that all of the commands
utilized in critical elements I through V
are listed
