How to prepare VMware VCP 5?

Hi all, I intend to take 5 secure Channel data center review in the next 6 months. Part of my role is to support the VM servers, but that does not give me an exhibition full of technology. I want to own a practice laboratory where I can create, modify, migrate virtual computer servers. What is the best way to create a laboratory? VMware workstation has limited features, i.e. I can not reproduce w/o SAN infrastructure. Can what tools I use? How VMware professional prepare for VCP, VCAP exams?

As others have said, VMware Workstation is adequate for the preparation in the review of VCP 5. You will not be able to cover every single goal in terms of the review with the workstation-based laboratory installation, but you probably wouldn't be able to do this without a pure material laboratory very very expensive still. Get VMware Workstation on a host with as much RAM as possible and go from there. For the goal, you can't reproduce in your lab of the workstation (FCoE, cf anything) spend reading a little more time and see also on youtube. The number of objectives you can not cover with this lab setup is few and really should not be enough to make the difference between the past and do not.

To see software iSCSI Starwind iSCSI SAN Free Edition and NFS, see http://www.openfiler.com. For vSphere Storage Appliance, see http://communities.vmware.com/message/1837450. In addition, William Lam (lamw) has a lot of excellent information on nested FT, ESXi and more http://www.virtuallyghetto.com which can be very useful for building the lab.

The only thing I can say with the laboratory of the workstation is to never get too attached to your configuration. Do not think that this is a static environment and think about all the virtual machines as throw. If you are outside resources and need to turn a new Windows VM to test the Update Manager or other software, then just clean up and go for it. You may need to do a little more work with this approach, but which only will prepare you more.

Good luck!

    How to prepare VMWare interview? What are resources that I can refer?

    Hrmmm... For what position?

    Honestly, as someone who has worked for the company for 8 years and joined with only the ability to spell virtualization (I had no idea who was this small start-up company called "VMware"), just be yourself and answer the questions to the best skills are the best way to go about it. More often than otherwise, the goal is to find someone who is part of a team and can work with a team without an ego. This company was founded on the desire and passion to help (at least in my experience).

    What I'd say is the following:

    1. be yourself

    2. don't be afraid to say that I don't know

    3. be honest (no, to be honest)

    4. do you have a vague idea of what we do together

    5 tell us what makes you great

    6. tell us what you need to work on things

    7. do you have the passion

    8. have the desire

    9. have fun

    10 ask. us what it looks like.

    Good luck!

  • How update the vmware tools on the guest or virtualcenter

    Hello

    We run a store where we support some linux boxes.  We had some problems with time drift and other things and on our vmware guy suggested put us the version of VMWare tools on the guest or virtual Center.  The only problem is that I can't find a procedure for this.

    To clarify, I'm not how to install VMWare tools on virtual machines.  We know how to do and we know to recompile after we patch the kernel.  But our guys VMWare suggests that in the end we're just recompile the same old version of VMWare tools to make it work with the new kernel.

    In fact, we suspect the version we have is very old, that we have not successfully updated because we were running on 2.5 and are now running on 4.0 Update 1 (wait for the 4.1 support nexus is added).

    Thank you

    Dan

    Welcome to the forums!

    So I assume you mean updating the source VMware Tools, which is then used to update VMware tools in guests?

    The guy from VMware is true, recompile the tools is necessary after a kernel update has been done. It is not up-to-date version. However, you must do that to make them work again.

    The latest VMware tools comes with the latest product or updates/patches for this product. Information shows that the tools are not updated after you apply this hotfix or an update.

    They also can be downloaded here (for ESX 4.x) : http://www.vmware.com/patch/s3portal.portal?_nfpb=true&_windowLabel=SearchPatch&SearchPatch_actionOverride=%2Fportlets%2Fpatchupdate%2FdisplayAllBundlePatches&_pageLabel=s3portal_pages_downloadPatch_page

  • How to prepare a master DVD multiple replication?

    Gratitude for more information on how to prepare a DVD multiple replication master.

    If your drive works, it may just be easier to return to a duplication service and to make copies.

    Another option is to burn your DVDs as ISO file on the hard drive of the time, rather than directly on a disc. You can then use this ISO file and a program such as ImgBurn to spit as many copies of your DVD - complete each with the integrity of the original.

  • How to prepare the PDF for printer when you print spreads with bleeding

    I have created a 12 - page document that is willing to go to printer. The front and rear cover a bleed on it and not too sure how to prepare the file.

    I sent unique pages with printer in the past harvest files so they can print as a booklet on their end, but this one is a little tricky because of the purge. I have been able to manually create a file of InD 11 x 17 and throw out and export that in PDF with crop marks, but something tells me that this is not the best way.

    For this work, I send you the original InD file so the printer can do everything they need to do to make things, but I would like to know for future reference.

    Thank you in advance!

    A 12-page document would print on 3 sheets of paper, so inside purge (on the back) probably won't be a problem, so you can set it to 0, or let the same thing that the bleed on the outer edges and let the tax to the printer software ignore it (assuming you let the printer do its work to impose). Send a PDF of 12 pages (with bleed) in consecutive order would be normal childbirth.

    But still, when you have a question like this, you should call and ask what they want to the printer.

  • How to restart vmware-vpxa using vMA 4.1

    I would like to know how to restart vmware-vpxa on an ESXi host using the vMA 4.1

    Currently I do with PowerCLI procedure

    SE connect-VIServer "hostname".
    $vpx = get-VMHostService | where {$_.} Key - eq "vmware-vpxa"}
    Restart-VMHostService $vpx - confirm

    But do not know how to do it using the vMA

    By default, there is no canned scripts/utilities to restart some services found on an ESX or ESXi host, but using the vSphere API, you can as in PowerCLI.

    Here's a vSphere SDK for Perl script that does exactly cela and works on vMA - hostServiceManagement.pl
