CentOS 7 Operations Management Note (1)----Set the default startup mode to GUI mode or command line mode

Yesterday in the virtual machine installed CentOS 7 o'clock selected Gnome mode installation, boot default into GUI mode. Search online to modify the default command-line mode method, see said to modify the/etc/inittab file, at the lowest next line to add

ID:3

Cat /etc/inittab

command to view the Inittab file, you can see the following:

Systemctl Set-default Multi-user.target
