File Management
When using an operating system, it is essential that File and Directory Management be properly done. This includes:
- Listing directories
- Copying, moving, and deleting files
- Creating and removing directories
- Using wildcards
- Touching files
- Finding files
- Identifying files
- Compressing files
- Archiving files

Most Linux distributions (including Red Hat Enterprise Linux and, consequently, CentOS Linux) adhere to the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard.
A Linux system administrator should understand the rationale behind this standard to be able to:
- Understand the role of the various directories in the filesystem
- Find specific files quickly
- Know where to place newly created files
