# Introduction In this challenge, you will create compressed tar archives of the `/home` directory using both gzip and bzip2 compression methods, and then extract them. This skill is essential for system administrators who need to efficiently backup and transfer large amounts of data. ## Environment LabEx uses Red Hat Universal Base Image 9 (UBI9) to simulate the exam environment. It may not be identical to the actual RHCSA exam environment, but it provides a good representation of the tasks you'll encounter. There are two users in the environment: - `labex`: A standard user with sudo privileges, password: `labex`. - `root`: The system administrator, password: `redhat`. The challenge features real exam questions, along with explanations, requirements, and automated verification scripts to help you confirm task completion. It effectively simulates the knowledge areas covered in the RHCSA exam.
