The first thing that is searched when a command references a file is it
| A. | i-node |
| B. | i-node number |
| C. | permission setting |
| D. | none of the above |
Answer : B Explanation : Suppose you enter a command like cp x y. Unlike the user, who uses the name to identify and differentiate files, the system uses i-node number to uniquely identify a file. Any file name has an associated i-node number. In UNIX. different files can have the same name. But the associated i-nodc number will be different. The filename---i-node correspondence can be found in the directory which has to be the first one that is to be searched, as nothing can be done to a file without knowing its i-node number. |
