HP UX interview questions Part 1

Hi Friends,

Thanks for the visits. Glad to see your visits always and appreciate your responses. I learnt some questions today about HP UX, which can be asked in an interview.

Question 1. What is the difference between cp command and cpio command.
Answer :- the cpio command copies link files also with it. the same thing is also performed by fbackup tool. but the cp and scp command doesn't copy the link files. due to which application may or may not start due to unavailabilty of links or link files.
but the limit of cpio command is that, it can only be used to copy within the limit of 2 GB. after that it will fail or not do. where cp command leads in this and has no limit to copy data of any size.
  so as per the requirement, we can use this command.

Question 2. What is the meaning of below terms and their work, explain?

1. lock lun
