Hardlink command

Hardlink command creates a multiple name for an file in a directory. It just creates a file name and does not create a inode for that file. The changes made to the hardlink does not affect the original file.The syntax for creating hardlink is: ln [source] [link]. source is the original file and link is the hardlink. The hardfiles are created whenever we want to change the location of files, when the storage space is low, to increase the performance of the file and data redundancy.
