VCAP5-DCA

[asurania]

HI;

So i am about to write the exam in the next few upcoming weeks.

Study Tactics have been

1. Watch Train Signal Videos.  Follow Labs where needed

2. Watch vBrownbag Videos on topics which are harder. Follow Labs where needed

3.Go through all the labs from the VMware optimize and scale course

In the exam are the questions and tasked more in a scenario format or more in task way. 

Example.

Scenario Based Question.

The Server admin is worried that some host could be overused more then other host, which could impact VM performance. Please rectify this issue

or

Tasked Based Question

Please Create a Cluster and setup DRS with the following host

I'll let the admins, Josh Andrews or someone else, answer this question. I may contravene the NDA if I answered this question. But in order to give you a vague answer - prepare for any kind of question. There are dozens of blogs out on the intertubes that give you the answer to your question. Check my blog about my DCA preparation/experience and a sample question > VCAP5 – DCA | Everything Virtual!

You should see questions of both of those types, plus maybe combinations of the two.
