How about you mods?
I plan to eventually tackle these exams. I had started on studying for the Linux+ months ago. I'm still a cli noob and learning a little as I go. This is definitely going to take some concerted effort and I'm trying to finish up at WGU right now.

For the LPIC1 exam there is loads of up to date material. Books on Amazon from 2015, cbt nuggets etc.
However I'm having some real problem with the LPIC2 material. There is NO CBT NUGGETS! The latest Sybex book I can find is from 2011.
And the LPIC3, despite the fact that that is miles off, is even more sketchy on material. This is really disheartening to me, as the LPIC material looked really good and relevant.
Any one have any up-to-date sources for the LPIC2 exam? I need a book or videos with hands on examples.
The Urban Penguin is quite good and it's free.
Edit: I just logged in and seems like they only have partial material for the first LPIC-2 test right now.
1) Can I pass LPIC-1 in one exam or need pass two?
2) Is there any lab or just questions with answers?
3) when I pass LPIC-1 i will automaticaly get Linux+ and Suse certification
Thank you in advance.

2) Is there any lab or just questions with answers? Each exam is 60 questions, mostly multiple choice and some fill in the blank.
3) when I pass LPIC-1 i will automaticaly get Linux+ and Suse certification. NO, you will need to register for CompTIA Linux+ and have them forward your scores to LPIC. https://certification.comptia.org/certifications/linux
The thing is, the author have changed, it's not Roderick Smith anymore - I guess it means that the overall writing style changed a bit, but nevertheless , it's Sybex Study Guide.. I personally would trust that.
PS. Really glad that LPI's alive, and doing fine, as some new books appear on the market.. it's been a long time since the last LPIC study guide realease.
But I really doubt that there will be any LPIC-3 study guides in the near future.
I used a number of books; not a big fan of video courses and online tutorials, so a classic bookworming is my choise.
For my preparation I read Rob Tracy's Comptia Guide, and Roderick Smith's LPIC-1 Guide.. But both these books are outdated now.
And so, if I were you, I would stick with C.Bresnahan's LPIC-1 Study Guide.
ed.:
Yeah, and for the LPIC-2 .. it was a way different story, just check my threads in this forum. In any case, LPIC-2 Study Guide that is going to be released in Sep,2016 looks _very_ promising to me, and by the time you start your preparation for this exam, the book will still be up to date..
From my experience, the "study guide" itself helps you actually get the minimum score and pass the exams, but for me it wasn't just enough, so I overprepared for LPIC2 exams as I wanted to get a deeper understanding of all the exam objectives, and for every subject that I wasn't familiar with, I got a separate book.. Like one book for Postfix, another one for squid, and another one for OpenVPN, and so on, and read, re-read, and labbed until I felt like a ninja,yeah..
Well, besides about $2. Same authors.
Same for the books.
as per the cover, you get a 10% discount vouchers for the exams with the Linux+ book.
Recently I found a couple of web resources covering LPIC-3(304) Exam objectives:
wiki:certification:lpic304 [LPI Certification Documentation]
https://www.lisenet.com/lpic-3/
These look promising enough.. Well, after skipping through these web-pages, I can state that they are not very detailed, but both are worth looking at. It's better than nothing they say.
This includes...lots of changes from:
- Increasing the coverage of systemd, including journaling and filesystem mounting
- Addition of IPv6 and TLS
- Updates to Linux 4.x, Apache 2.4...
- Removal detailed knowledge on lilo
... and more could be found at https://wiki.lpi.org/wiki/LPIC-2_Summary_Version_4.0_To_4.5
Personally I thinks this should be the necessary step up from version 4.0 (released from 2014) to update all new knowledge to candidates who want to achieve to this certification level. Get excited but there are lots of things to prepare for it
Nice to see they're continuing to update the objectives with current technologies. I think the added objectives definitely add value to the LPIC-2 certification.
Although LPI says that they does not require any prerequisite cert but at least LPIC-1 equal knowledge is recommended to prepare for the test
