Materials available during the review of the VCAP-DCA

Hi guys,.

Who will be my VCAP-DCA exam at the end of the month.

I was reviewing notes and format of the DCA, and it is not clear what materials are available to the candidate during the examination.

Are functions online help or the documents available to the candidate during the DCA?

Or do we have to memorize all the menu items and orders for this review?

Thank you
Kelvin

You will have access to all the functions of built-in help of interfaces and the different tools and documentation that refers to the action plan.

But, time is tight and you have to rely on access to these things as little as possible - in the best position to be in is not not to refer to the documentation/help at all.

I did DCA on vSphere 4 and the same is true for this - I haven't used documentation for a couple of tasks and should make reference to the CLI help a few times - screen strive to keep that to a minimum.

  • iCloud backup after iOS 10 - some files were not available during the last backup

    HI - we are a company with about 350 users of iPhone and iPad.  I put this in the iCloud in the community section, but I've seen other users have the same problem in this section, so I thought I would add here.

    In order to stop users add their own e-mail accounts on the iPhone that lock us the device through restrictions - deactivation of the accounts section.  It stops and then access the iTunes settings.  In the test of iOS 10.0.1, we have one of the devices (a 16 GB 5 s, who had been a backup at 7:20 that morning), improved 9.3.2 that went well with no obvious problems, then, after a few days to leave the handset to the function, we have lifted the restriction and the backup on iCloud to find any backup not occurred since the upgrade and a message 'some files were not available during the last. backup"in its place.

    If all our staff upgrade their phones (we gave says not yet) then the backups look like they stop.  It is easy to fix, as a manual backup, will complete the process, but you have to remove the restriction to do this.

    We tested on iPhone 5, 5 s, air iPad iOS 8 to 9.3.5 and all have this problem.

    I have exactly the same problem, 16 GB iPhone 5s as well. I plan on raising at my Genius Bar appointment today.

  • Question about the VCAP-DCA Certification

    I have a query on the VCAP-DCA Certification the...

    I am certified VCP4, My target is VCAP5-DCA.

    My query is... If I take the review VCP5 directly with output authorized Vmware training...

    What am eligible to the Certification VCAP5-DCA...?

    You can not. It is a difficult requirement - you MUST have the class to have the VCP certification. You can take the exam without the class, but you do not get the certification without the class. This is to avoid exactly what you are doing. A dump is just a memory exercise. By forcing the class, we know that you had some practices, even if for a week. We want the VCP to the senses, and not be just an exercise in memorizing the answers. This isn't knowledge, which is just facts randomly.

  • Nature of the VCAP-DCA issues

    Hello

    These questions are for those who have taken the VCAP-DCA exam or anyone envolved with this review.

    I want just to have an idea about the nature of the VCAP-DCA exam questions.

    I saw the demo provided by VMware. I don't want anyone to voilate the NDA and share the questions with us.

    but here are some of the questions I have:

    1 - How VMware does not mark the results? They monitoring/recording the whole review and assess the review on how to make or that they only care about final results?

    2 - if VMware results cares so y did - it a mandate on how to accomplish a task? (for example, you can perform a task of vCenter Server and vSphere client (GUI) or you can use the command line (using the vMA vCLI or powerCLI)

    3. I guess you don't have to deal with 3rd device configuration part. I just want to confirm.

    For example for grouping of NETWORK cards you do not have to set up Port Trunking on Cisco switches or facing SAN administration.

    like I'm supposed to add a logical unit number to my ESX servers all configurations on SAN are precofigured and correct. (Level of access,...)

    4 - Last but not least - if you want to give a percentage of GUI vs. command line, what will your percentage?

    It's my first full review of laboratory, and I don't want to take any chances.

    Thank you

    1. the action plan is clear... they assess if you reach the objectives of the task... not how.

    2. you can choose how to... of course in some cases, you can do some tasks from the GUI.

    3. 3rd party is not included... But remember that the action plan also requires vShied and vCenter heartbeat areas!

    4. my humble opinion, it depends on you... If you want to do everything alone by GUI you can do more than half of jobs with it (I can't be more specific because of the NDA).

  • How to program the VCAP-DCA to VMWorld2014 test?

    Hello

    I recently registered for VMWorld 2014.   I currently have my VCP5.x already and am currently studying for my review of VCAP-DCA 5.x.   I would like to take my exam at VMWorld 2014 on-site at the Conference.

    Simply, I can't find any reliable information on how to sign up for this place.

    I have my pre approval for the VCAP certification.   I also contacted PearsonVue, but their support team has no idea on VMWorld.

    Is someone took their on-site review during VMWorld?

    The timetable for the review happens via the site Web of VMWorld or PearsonVue?

    I know the review slots fill fast because of the generous test discount and I don't want to miss.

    I'd appreciate any help or advice.

    Thank you very much.   John

  • Documentation in the Test of the VCAP-DCA

    Hi all

    I'm studying for my VCAP-DCA and I found it useful to refer to the documentation to refresh my memory on ESXCLI orders for rare tasks like masking/unmasking of paths to a LUN.  I heard that the Documentation centre of VMware vSphere 5.5 is available for consultation in the test lab you do the test.  Is this true?  If so, is it available as it's online?  In other words, I'll be able to type 'Mask paths' into a search bar to find the commands for the LUN mask/unmask railways if I forgot?

    Thank you in advance for your help/advice!

    There are links to the Documentation Centre of vSphere 5.5 and http://kb.vmware.com/ as well as a ton of PDF files contained in the plan of action https://mylearn.vmware.com/lcms/web/portals/certification/VCAP_Blueprints/VCAP5-DCA-VDCA550-Exam-Blueprint-v3_3.pdf

  • Error code 1711 - an error occurred when writing information on the installation disk. Check of course make disk space is available during the installation of updates for java, adobe, iTunes

    Original title: Error1711

    Hi all

    I apologize in advance if this question has already been asked. I could not find if it has.

    I got ill of updates on some installation programs, java, adobe, iTunes. When I try to install the update, I get an error saying that there is not enough disk space. This computer is 1 month with a 1Terabyte HD, running Windows 7 x 64. I have 882 GB of free space.

    I feel that it is probably a mistake with the TEMP files, but I am unable to find the location of the file. I ran system restore, CCleaner and disk cleanup all to nothing does not. I don't know why I can't find the C:\Windows\System32\Installer file, but I can't.

    If you can help point me in the right direction, I would be very grateful.

    Thanks in advance,

    Hi GoGreen83,

    As MVP TaurArain mentioned that the problem is related to the Windows Installer, I suggest you try the following steps:

    Step 1: Unregister and then reregister Windows Installer

    1 registration of Windows Installer. To do this, click Start, type run, click Run, type msiexec /Unregister in the Open box, and then click OK.

    2. reregister Windows Installer. To do this, click Start, type run, click Run, type msiexec /regserver/regserver in the Open box, and then click OK.

    Step 2: Auditor of file system (CFS) scan to fix all of the corrupted system files. To do this, follow the steps mentioned in the link below:

    How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Now check if the problem is resolved

    Deleting temporary files

    Disk Cleanup should take care of temporary files, Temp location C:\Windows\Temp

    Click Start > type Temp in the search box and press on enter, clear the contents of the folder

    Similarly, type folder under search and delete temporary files

  • Recommended lab environment for the preparation of the VCAP-DCA

    I started to prepare for my certification and would be grateful for each entry to a proper test environment

    including VM, Applications, etc...


    My project looks like: 2-ESXi 4.1 Cluster with vCenter 4.1 Standard on a storage FC (No iSCSI in the company...)

    I agree that it is better to use two ESX and ESXi - review you certainly both tasks.

  • How to get books used in the VCAP course

    In preparation for the VCAP courses and exams, I'd like to see if I can find the names of the books for these courses, and if there is a way to buy books for the course in advance, in order to prepare for the course and the examination or anyone with extras.

    I have listed the courses below, and if you have any info on the materials for them and can spend it will be useful thanks!

    VMware do not sell books of course outside goes on the course. I suggest seriously to get the VCAP-DCA review plan and download all documents covered - completely free and Council. VSphere documentation and technical paper on vmware.com areas have all the information you could ever need...

    The other thing to do to the VCAP-DCA is build a lab and play, play and play more... Don't forget that this review is 100% live labs.

  • Internet Explorer 9.0 is not available in the list of filters to Group Policy Management Editor requirements.

    In the GPME, I want to filter settings that apply only to Internet Explorer 9.0.

    In the list of filters requirements only IE3 by IE8 is available and IE9 is missing.

    The only policysettings IE9 are available during the use not all filters.

    I use Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 (Dutch) with RSAT for W7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 Standard (Dutch).

    IE9 is installed on all clients and servers, including all updates.

    On a server using GPME has the same effect.

    Models using the or the central store makes no difference.

    I use the admx and adml files right, but the filter list is not populated with IE9.

  • Question about the phase-out of the VCAP

    Hello

    I just recently had my VCP5 and I plan to start studying for my VCAP but I noticed the following thread: Re: VCAP exams is being gradually...

    It is, will change the goals, etc.? This would affect me if I got my VCAP-DCA in the meantime? If I have to spend another review for the VTC VCIX or just change the title?

    Thank you

    Jake

    It is only the new track of virtualization of network which includes the new VCIX element at the moment - he there is no news on the existing VTC, DT, and tracks of cloud.

    So, for now I continue as planned to the VCAP-DCA or VCAP-DCD (you don't tell you you're aiming for)

  • VCP410.is spent there all recommended for the preparation of the vcap?

    Couldn't believe I erased this in my first attempt with 350 + score. For me, it's a hard to split nut.

    I finished my vsphere 4.0 training almost a year ago. I lived vmware docs, Scott Lowe on 'Mastering VMware vSphere4.0' registry home lab and youtube videos on vmware configurations.

    In addition, Simonlong and other vmware Articles are a great resource for reference. Mock exams on the vmware website and simon long helped in practice.

    Now, I'm looking forward to the vcap-dca. Looking for suggestions on how to prepare.

    Thanks in advance,
