VCAP-DCA – Uber Awesome Study Guide – xMind

Dec 19

Posted by

UPDATE: I have uploaded the links for the Study Guide to MegaUpload.  I plan on creating a torrent a bit later on.

Yeah the name says it all. Of Course this is an xMind file so first you will need to head over to the xMind website and download the application. You can get that HERE!

Now 1st off I want to thank the following people for their contributions to the VMware Community and for their excellent study guides which they have graciously allowed me to combine within this awesome guide. This guide is for the VMware certified advance professional – Datacenter Center Administrator.

Update: I added the online version!

Offline Version (Currently finding another download location)
Alternative (DropBox and could be offline depending on traffic)

Online Version (Video Links only)

Now there are a few things to note:

  1. This was completely gathered with their permission!
  2. If you want to distribute this file you will need to ask before doing so and adhere to the SAME copyrights that they themselves are covered by. (Creative Commons and etc.)
  3. This file is Gi-normous (1GB download)
  4. I am working on a “on-line” version it will be up soon.
  5. If you don’t want the videos you can use links within the xMind to locate the video on the website and delete them in the xMind.
  6. The lab by Christian Mohn is complete – If you want to provide links for the following and permissions for use I will add it. This is a nested lab only set up involving vSphere 4.0 currently I need the following:
    Shared Storage (open filer and what not)
    Creating a HA/DRS Cluster

    Hi Cwjking,

    Many thanks for your awesome blog!!! I’m having trouble opening the Study Guide using xMind, I don’t seem to be able to find a .xmind or .xmap file.

    Please could you help?

    Thanks,

    Perhaps a rapidshare upload will do?
