in Virtualization
Just thought I ask in case I missed any. Most of the books seem to be on pre-order and not released for a few more month. I need to get my VCP4 before December 31 to avoid going for the course again.

Pdfs should be more than enough, but I always like to read the 3rd party stuff too :D:D

    Aside from the exam cram book, I thought VMware's resources were better (at least for the exam) than any of the other books anyway.

    I'm reading Mastering VMware vSphere 4 by Scott Lowe right now. It's not aimed at certification, but so far it's a pretty good read.

    Yea, the Mastering books are great. I have the previous once of those and the Exchange 2007 one.

    Scott's is only vSphere focused book currently in print (lots more coming) and would be your best bet.

    I just got my copy of Mastering vSphere 4 on Saturday. I also have this book but I haven't opened it yet.

    Amazon.com: VMware vSphere and Virtual Infrastructure Security: Securing the Virtual Environment (9780137158003): Edward L. Haletky: Books
    IT guy since 12/00

    Recent: 11/2019 - RHCSA (RHEL 7); 2/2019 - Updated VCP to 6.5 (just a few days before VMware discontinued the re-cert policy...)
    Working on: RHCE/Ansible
    Future: Probably continued Red Hat Immersion, Possibly VCAP Design, or maybe a completely different path. Depends on job demands...
