Preserving Linux Shell History Even If Working with Multiple Terminals

If you are continuously running shell commands on more than one linux terminal, probably you want all of the shell (mostly bash) prompts to remember any command from any terminal. With the following environmental variables to save the .bashrc file, you can do it so.


# This is for ignoring duplicate entries
export HISTCONTROL=ignoredups:erasedups

# This is for large history
export HISTSIZE=102400

# This is for a big history file
export HISTFILESIZE=100000

# This is for appending commands to history file
shopt -s histappend

# This is for saving and reloading the history after each command is run
export PROMPT_COMMAND="history -a; history -c; history -r; $PROMPT_COMMAND"

Bond0 is for making ssh connections and management only so corresponding switch ports are not configured in trunk mode. enp3s0f0 and enp3s0f1 interfaces are bonded as bond1. Bond1 is for data and corresponding switch ports are configured in trunk mode. Bond0 is the default gateway for the server and has IP address 10.1.10.11 Bond1 has three subinterfaces with VLAN 4, 36, 41. IP addresses are 10.1.3.11, 10.1.35.11, 10.1.40.11 respectively. Proper communication with other servers on the network we should use routing tables. There are three
