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/

    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).

  • VCAP-DCA comes to vSphere 5.0?

    Hello

    I'm a little confused on how to go to the VCAP-DCA exam, I was preparing for him to last three months, but some time I learned to know that DCA VCAP who judge your skills on vSphere 4.0 currently would be revised in accordance with the latest 5.0, I decided to renew my VCP 410 to 510 PCC and wait more recent review now after my VCP510 two days. I checked for any change of VCAP vmware site but it is always about the same.

    Can someone please help me on this, is vmware guys are reworking on redesign VCAP-DCA or will I advance for VCAP-DCA 4.0?

    Thanks in advance,

    MILIN

    Beta VCAP5-DCA (only for those selected) will probably start next Monday and may close after 4 weeks...

    Examine at least one (but probably two months or more) for the results... I guess that this formal review may not begin before July...

  • Pagefile.sys has completely disappeared. It started when the power failed and my computer crashed.

    My pagefile.sys has completely disappeared. This all started when the power failed and my computer crashed.
    I get the message that he was away, I went to the performance and settings and tried to change custom settings & re-start.
    No matter what I do, nothing works. I lost several hours of visiting sites for tips and nothing seems to help.
    I was told when re-boots WinXP it creates the new file pagefile.sys and I should delete the pagefile.sys file may be corrupted on the C drive.
    So I put the folders to show hidden files and delete pagefile.sys. I have re-set and tried to recover with no success.
    There is now absolutely no pagefile.sys on my C drive. Anyone know how I can get back my pagefile.sys?
    I want to get my virtual memory works again?
    Thank you very much in advance!

    I'd start first with the chkdsk/r.

    Don't forget - if you have a factory installed recovery Partition, fixmbr will scan it as the Master Boot Record that written XP will equal not the MBR installed by the factory, so first run chkdsk /r (did I say that already)?

    Here are some instructions:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/RCONSOLE.htm

    Where people have no XP bootable media, here are my instructions:

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    xp_rec_con. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

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