The Hardway to Study VMware

Hard way Study Tips:

1) Installed a lab environment at home. So that i could evaluate, test and get “hands-on” experience on vSphere. (2x ESX hosts + openfiler for shared storage) This is by far the absolute best way to learn about vSphere and get experience and knowledge about this great product.

2) Read and memorized the “vSphere documentation notes” (http://www.vreference.com/downloads/…4-notes1.0.pdf) and the “vSphere reference card” (http://www.vreference.com/downloads/…re4card1.0.pdf) from vreference.com. Many thanks to Forbes Guthrie for his excellent work on these pdfs.

3) Read the “VCP on vSphere4 Exam Blueprint” from VMware () to define what i had to learn to pass the exam. All questions, reflections and obscurity’s that i had on the content of the blueprint i looked up and read about in the main documentation set for vSphere. You can download this in pdf format or you can (as i did) search it in the online version found here WebWorks Help 5.0 . This is the definitive resource and answers all your questions.

good luck!!
