Hi Every one. I Would like to prepare VCAP - DCA . But I am not good in Power CLI. Could some one guide me how to learn Power CLI. Plz share any useful Website or books or videos to lean Power CLI.
There's quite a fair amount of resources out there from VMworld sessions from past years to books. For my DCA I did the Hal Rottenburg Pluralsight videos and read the PowerCLI book by Alan and Jonathan
VMware vSphere PowerCLI: Basics - Online Training Course for Developers

I used "Managing VMware Infrastructure With Windows PowerShell" by Hal Rottenberg, ISBN 0-9821314-0-2. It is a few years old now but what I liked about it is that there was an explanation of Windows PowerShell with a "Windows PowerShell Crash Course" at the start.
Once you get into PowerShell you soon discover that it is self documenting and you don't need reference material. Want to find a command to do something with a virtual hard disk enter "help harddisk", this will list all of the commands with harddisk in the name, e.g. Copy-HardDisk, Get-HardDisk, New-HardDisk, Remove-HardDisk, Set-HardDisk. Want more details on New-HardDisk, enter the command "Help New-HardDisk", this gives you the syntax of the command and a description of what it does. Want some examples of how to use the command try "Help New-HardDisk -examples".
Thank You So much , I will check the Links which given by you
Thank You Cjscol for your helpful info
By exam point of view, you have to complete your task by the way which you like, if you think you can use VC you can use VC for the task, there will be equal marks.
However, there will be some tasks which are not possible by VC, so there you can use esxcli command on esxi.
I think just basic introduction will be enough for the exam point of view.
Thanks for your advice
