VCAP-DCA comes to vSphere 5.0?

• When the VCAP-DCD and VCAP-DCA examinations for vSphere 5.0 will be available for registration?

  I'm a VCP5, I can't take the VCAP-DCD and DCA for vSphere 4.0 right? If the ideas when VMware will release the version 5.0 VCAP-DCD and DCA reviews? Thank you very much!

  Hello

  I asked the team of certification at VMworld on release dates and got a very vague answer. So far, there had been no mention of the beta exams VCAP nor is the same model released so I don't see it to become available before the end of February, which as noted Simon is a real shame that this means that all the VCP4 and VCAP4 holders must make the VCP5 in order to save to the Whats New course as a prerequisite. For the cost of the reviews, I think it's a real slap in the face to those who have spent time and money, get a number of certifications. Also there is no official decision of if you go the VCAP5 you will have your VCP4 improved to 5. So although validations who says that have been deleted.

  I booked my VCP5 because of this lack of news and ability to upgrade and I'm seriously considering not even reviews of VCAP5 because it takes a lot of time, money and effort to get to them and then VMware take forever to even keep up to date on how it's going or if there will be any sort of upgrade.

  I say VMware as a show of thanks for those who have spent so much time getting VCAP4 accreditations gives a 50% discount good for the VCAP5.

  I've built a whole page of resources that I use for my VCP5 if you are interested, here: http://thesaffageek.co.uk/vcp5/

  Also a page for the resources of VCAP5 here: http://thesaffageek.co.uk/vcap5-dca-dcd/

• VCAP-dca web client or vsphere client

  wonder for vcap-dca exam, specifically require a candidate to use web client or vsphere client?

  VCAP Simulator shows using vsphere client but plan shows the two under Tools for each objective.

  No, you can use either.  I know about the 5.1 VCAP-DCA I only used the VI-Client.  As long as the question they ask you installation is configuration bit is important if you use the VI-Client, Web Client or CLI to do.

• 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

• VCAP-DCA 5.5 WebUI

  Hello

  Someone at - it still taken VCAP-DCA 5.5?  This review is still around the fat client c# or some parts of the exam include now perform tasks using the Web user interface?

  Thank you

  DCA510 is based on vSphere 5.0 and is always available, but not recommended.

  DCA550 is based on vSphere 5.5, fewer questions (23 against 26), less time (180 min vs 210 min), easier component names and passwords access to pubs.vmware.com and kb.vmware.com, a more simple interface (a full Win2k8 desktop for 90% of the work) and is structured to significantly reduce the chances of a candidate to blow up the environment.

• Past: VCAP-DCA

  Finally, I received a confirmation e-mail that I spent my VCAP-DCA!

  This is a great start to the week after the Monday morning

  Of course, I'm very happy with it, I had to wait for a while for confirmation, did the review on July 21.

  Next VCAP-DCD, it is scheduled for September.

  For all those who are planning to take the exam, do it! Do it! It is one of the best reviews I've ever done!

• 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.

• 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).

• VCAP-DCA 550 retirement date?

  Hello

  I started to prepare for VCAP a few times now, but whenever life got in the way.

  VMware is changing the cert at VCIX, and I wonder if it's worth using VCAP. I am aware that you can use the VCAP cert to VCIX but I don't know if I can finish before VCAP withdraw all together. There is a retirement date assigned for VCAP-DCA 550?

  See you soon

  Not that I know of...

• 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

• Guidelines for the review of VCAP-DCA (Administration)

  Dear experts,

  Please pass me a review of vcap-dca guide. where can I get the exact study material.

  And share me if you have any other ideas for this exam.

  Kind regards

  Siva

  There are certainly some great study there guides. Jason Langer and Josh Coen have many resources on their blogs. A study guide I also want to mention is the guide of study by Mike Preston and myself, we made a theory and an approach by based scenario (which you can find at DCA review) which brings the theoretical knowledge to the reality.

  You will find the Jason Langer & Josh Coen here, Mike Prestons study guide and mine here. The VMware community is really helpful, so if you have any questions on the left, just ask them.
