Explain how you would manage background and foreground processes in Linux.
Answer Posted / hr@tgksolutions.com
Commands like 'bg', 'fg', and 'jobs' are used to manage background and foreground processes. 'jobs' lists all jobs launched in the current session, 'fg' brings a process to the foreground, and 'bg' sends it to the background.
For instance, you can use Ctrl+Z to suspend a process that is running in the foreground and then use 'bg' to continue running it in the background if you need to free up the terminal.
The best answers will demonstrate an awareness of process management and include situations where managing background processes is required, including when lengthy scripts or maintenance activities are being performed.
