    Welcome to TE.

    No background knowledge required for virtualization. Helpful background knowledge are Networking, SAN & guest OS.

    CCNA cert is not required for virtualization jobs.

    I'm reading Information Storage and Management: Storing, Managing, and Protecting Digital Information. Alot of information but its pretty good to round out the VCP exam. VMWare Press has a storage book coming out in Aug, so I'm waiting on that.
    Currently reading: Start with Why: How Great Leaders Inspire Everyone to Take Action
