Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone could advise on sourcing the required study materials as indicated in the Exam Blueprint. Thus far I have found my course manuals the most useful although they lack in some areas.
I realise everyone says use the PDF's well thus far I haven't found that useful as the PDF's I have been instructed to reference do not appear to contain the information I require. I haven't managed to find a PDF called ESX Admin Guide for example which is detailed as a reference for most sections of the blueprint and the Installation and Configuration Guide(s) both appear to contain no information about building disk partitions. One PDF I have found useful is the Configuration Maximums which after doing some Mock exams I can see why it's important to know all of the maximums if possible.
Bizarrely as well is that during Mock Exams (on the VMWARE website) I have had quite a few questions on ESX/VCenter Licensing (quite detailed ones - scenario based) when the Blueprint only appears to indicate you need to know locations of the license server and how to add, activate and deploy licenses. And also quite a few questions on port numbers which doesn't appear to be mentioned at all.
Also if anyone can suggest some decent sources (URL's) for comparisons between ESX and hosted products it would be greatly appreciated? I would also appreciate any recommendations from those who have passed the exam on what PDF's were useful for them?
I must admit it would be lovely if VMWARE just released a comprehensive manual containing all the information as I am finding sourcing the information far more troublesome than the actual studying.
Would appreciate any advice anyone can offer.
Best Regards.
