Dear All, Being new to the VMware application I have some questions about the cloning. V2V and P2V, how does the software guarantee everything is being copied, in other apps I use to work with a #Key. Is this part of the application validated as well and where is this documented. I work within the Pharmaceutical industry and this means we can only use properly validated tools. Thank you in advance,   Jeroen

Looking at certification page looks like one of the requirements for VCP-NV 2019 is to take one of the required training courses. Looking at one of the training courses I see sticker price of $4250 !!! Doesn't look like you accept Cisco certs instead those training courses. Is there a way to get VCP-NV 2019 without spending $4250 ? It looks to me that VMARE doesn't really want people to get certifications.

Why is the VMWN 5.5 to 6.7 no longer required for students who are VCP-DCV5 and want to upgrade their certification to VCP-DCV 2019. Nor is the course required for students who want to upgrade their certification VCP-DCV 6.5 to VCP-DCV 2019. The course is only recommended. Regards, Ed Janssen

Why is the VMWN course no longer required as course, for students who want to upgrade their certification to VCP-DCV 2019? I will require the VMWN course as requirement for those students who want to upgrade from VCP-DCV 5.x to VCP-DCV 2019. Regards, Ed Janssen

For those who are interested in the subject of VMware like me and intend to pass the VMware certification exam in the near or distant future, just like me, this entry should be useful. http://cmichal.com/bez-kategorii/what-is-vmware-certification-is-it-worth-doing-vmware-certification/ Michał

Greetings all! I have recently passed 3V0-643 exam and got my VCAP6-NV certification. It took me some months to prepare and some nerves to pass so here is my advice to those that may follow. First of all, keep in mind, that the exam is glitchy. And don't just take my word for it, this is something that I heard from Pearson VUE tech support person. And yes, I've had my share of technical problems with this exam too. Luckily Pearson VUE support (with Vmware Learning assistance, as I understood) managed to solve them. All in all I feel satisfied as I actually did pass. But it took me ~1.5-2 additional hours on site. Hours full of nerves, uncertainty and headache progressing from slight and just annoying to quite strong and troubling. I won't tell all the story behind, what problems we faced etc, I'll just give some piece advice: Pick the Certification Center that is big, modern, reliable and in a location where you can expect excellent Internet connection. This is vital to get exam environment running smoothly and be responsive, as the exam requires far more bandwidth than usual QA-type exams. Wouldn't hurt to call your Certification facility of choice prior to booking with them. Ask if they had a candidate take and pass this exact exam with them before and were there any problems. Don't hesitate and don't wait if you face problems or something doesn't seem right during the exam. Remember, this is your money (well, maybe your employer's, and he expects a result from you), your time and your effort, so you are in charge of defending your interest. So don't waste time, notify Certification Center administration of any problems at once. Don't agree to compromises, be firm at what you want - and you want to take an exam in a time that is defined for it. Remember, CC, Pearson and VMware have all the tools to fix everything and let you do your job. And as it always is: read the blueprint. Read every Objective listed under exam topics and know how to do that. Use HOL to your advantage. If you complete a task but something in the NSX environment is not working as you expected, don't try to fix it at once - move to the next task, don't waste time, you might need it later to complete more simple and straight-forward tasks. Like, I MEAN it. Don't. Because you will face it. And you will want to. Don't! You can always go back, and at times previous task even starts to look more clear after you come to the later tasks. Oh, and the last one: remember, 3V0-643 is not so difficult as you might expect it to be. Yes, it's scary - but not terrifying

Hello VMware Community, i was VMware certified since Version 2 to 3 to 4 to 5 to 5.5 since  2005. This year i missed the renewal date by 1 month (vcp55 expired 02/20) and i was just told by VMware certification i have to retake the Training sessions. Yeah, very professional friendly. Im already working more than a year with vsphere 6. i have to pay the exam fee of eur 250,- and now take the Training too. This policy makes real friends. I´ll not recertify as VCP anymore. Regards, Mario

All, While studying for the VCP6-DCV delta exam I started writing out my own study guide. The idea was to hopefully codify and synthesize the knowledge in my brain, but I also hoped to be able to provide it to others in order to assist in their certification journey. Well, I ran out of time and unfortunately have an incomplete study guide. I wanted to link that guide here to hopefully help people out, but also to solicit help from anyone who may be interested in teaming up to complete the materials. If you're interested, please comment back or hit me on the blog. Thanks! Scott VCP6-DCV delta – Virtual VT

Hi all, First time posting hear, so hello! My question is: I hold a valid VCP5-DCV (version 5.5) and I was wondering what you recommend as my next level course?? My cert expires Feb. 2017, so I don't do the next level I will just renew my DCV (VCP6 I assume this time). I see on this page: Data Center Virtualization Certification Solution Track Page that my I should be considering VCAP6-DCV Design or VCAP6-DCV deploy. Correct? What is the difference between the two exams? How hard are they compared to the VCP5 exam? Do I need a VCP6 before I can go to VCAP6 or is my VCP5 ok? What do you guys think? I love and enjoy the 'hardware' side of IT and hate programming side of things. Thanks in advance!

Hi there, I’m a current VCP6-NV holder who passed the exam last year. I have the VCP55-DCV scheduled next month. Will passing the VCP55-DCV exam “extend” my VCP6-NV exam’s expiration for another 2 years once I pass? When is the VCP55-DCV exam scheduled to retire? Thanks
