New VMware Class for SMBs
Posted by Brad Christian in Certification, VMware on November 29, 2012
See New Live, Online Training Helps SMBs Running VMware Overcome Limited Time and Budget for Training for details. They left out the most important thing- does this qualify you to take the VCP exam?
Its the younger administrators in SMBs that need the VCP more than anyone else. I hope they are making it easier for people to qualify- please keep the test hard though!
Passed the VCP-DT

I’ve done a ton of VMware View deployments, so I went ahead and got the VMware Certified Professional 5- Desktop. I wasn’t that difficult of an exam if you have experience with the product. The only part that was hard is the questions about sub-optimal setups- like doing full clone desktops. I hate full-clone desktops and always go linked-clone if I can.
I plan on taking the VCAP5-DT as soon as it comes out. Since I do a lot of PowerShell and real world deployments of View it makes since. my secret plan is to get the VCDX and be one of the first VCDX Desktop guys.
