VCP6-DCV Study center (help)

kj0

So this is a quick opening post from me. A lot are going to be sitting the Beta tests this month and next and I thought we should do a thread together that can help each other. The idea being that we post about a section we are struggling with (being specific - if required) and then as a team, we can help one another understand it a little bit more.

Example:

Request:
I am struggling to understand how Expandable Reservations work and their use, can someone help?

Someone to shed some light:
I can't explain it, but here is a really good blog post about it.
Expandable reservation on resource pools, how does it work? - frankdenneman.nl



Also, make sure you are checking the daily quiz, some of these topics may be questions already, and some of these may turn into questions.

Anyway, I hope this helps some people with their studies.

Thank you

Good idea.

Request - I'm having trouble replacing the VMCA root certificate. I have generated the .csr and .key files, plugged the contents of the .csr file into the webpage of my CA, downloaded the certificate, tried to replace and get a big error:



I know it's got something to do with the CA and the way I'm submitting the request. Anyone else run into this or replaced the root certificate on the VMCA? I know Derek Seaman has got a toolkit that does all this automatically, I've tried to be brave and do this myself. I'm going through the logs as indicated above and will report back if I fix it.

EDIT: Found the fix > http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=2112016

Will do a blog post about this error too perhaps. EDIT: Did it here.
