The configuration file shown in the image is written in YAML format, so the syntax formatter should support YAML to correct any issues with the file. YAML stands for YAML Ain’t Markup Language, and it is a human-readable data serialization language that uses indentation and colons to define key-value pairs. YAML supports various data types, such as scalars, sequences, mappings, anchors, aliases, and tags. The configuration file follows the rules and syntax of YAML, while the other options do not. Markdown is a lightweight markup language that uses plain text formatting to create rich text documents. XML is a markup language that uses tags to enclose elements and attributes. JSON is a data interchange format that uses curly braces to enclose objects and square brackets to enclose arrays. References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 21: Automating Tasks with Ansible, page 591.

The command find . -type f -print | xargs grep -li denied will accomplish the task of identifying files that contain any occurrence of the word denied. The find command is a tool for searching for files and directories on Linux systems. The . is the starting point of the search, which means the current directory. The -type f option specifies the type of the file, which means regular file. The -print option prints the full file name on the standard output. The | is a pipe symbol that redirects the output of one command to the input of another command. The xargs command is a tool for building and executing commands from standard input. The grep command is a tool for searching for patterns in files or input. The -li option specifies the flags that the grep command should apply. The -l flag shows only the file names that match the pattern, instead of the matching lines. The -i flag ignores the case of the pattern, which means it matches both uppercase and lowercase letters. The denied is the pattern that the grep command should search for. The command find . -type f -print | xargs grep -li denied will find all the regular files in the current directory and its subdirectories, and then search for any occurrence of the word denied in those files, ignoring the case, and print only the file names that match the pattern. This will allow the administrator to identify files that contain any occurrence of the word denied. This is the correct command to use to accomplish the task. The other options are incorrect because they either do not ignore the case of the pattern (find . -type f -print | xargs grep -ln denied or find . -type f -print | xargs grep -wL denied) or do not show the file names that match the pattern (find . -type f -print | xargs grep -nv denied). References: CompTIA Linux+ (XK0-005) Certification Study Guide, Chapter 16: Managing Logging and Monitoring, page 489.

The command that would address the memory-related issue is kill -9 8321. This command will send a SIGKILL signal to the process with the PID 8321, which is the mysqld process that is using 99.7% of the available memory according to the top output. The SIGKILL signal will terminate the process immediately and free up the memory it was using. However, this command should be used with caution as it may cause data loss or corruption if the process was performing some critical operations.

The other options are not correct commands for addressing the memory-related issue. The top -p 8321 command will only display information about the process with the PID 8321, but will not kill it or reduce its memory usage. The renice -10 8321 command will change the priority (niceness) of the process with the PID 8321 to -10, which means it will have a higher scheduling priority, but this will not affect its memory consumption. The free 8321 command is invalid because free does not take a PID as an argument; free only displays information about the total, used, and free memory in the system. References: How to troubleshoot Linux server memory issues; kill(1) - Linux manual page
