= Document Conventions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This section describes various conventions and practices that are used throughout all Red Hat Training courses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Admonitions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Red Hat Training courses use the following admonitions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== Note
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Notes are tips, shortcuts, or alternative approaches to the task at hand.
|
|
|
|
Ignoring a note should have no negative consequences, but you might miss out on something that makes your life easier.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== Warning
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Do not ignore warnings.
|
|
|
|
Ignoring these admonitions will most likely cause data loss.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== Important
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Important sections provide details of information that is easily missed: configuration changes that apply only to the current session, or services that need restarting before an update applies.
|
|
|
|
Ignoring these admonitions will not cause data loss, but might cause irritation and frustration.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Inclusive Language
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Red Hat Training is currently reviewing its use of language in various areas to help remove any potentially offensive terms.
|
|
|
|
This is an ongoing process and requires alignment with the products and services that are covered in Red Hat Training courses.
|
|
|
|
Red Hat appreciates your patience during this process.
