Correct Answer
A. Qdaemon:2:wait:/usr/bin/startsrc –sqdaemonExplanation
The correct answer is "qdaemon:2:wait:/usr/bin/startsrc –sqdaemon" because this entry in the /etc/inittab file specifies that the qdaemon process should be started in the "wait" state. This means that the system will wait for the process to complete before moving on to the next entry in the file. The "/usr/bin/startsrc –sqdaemon" command is used to start the qdaemon process.Rate this question:
