I watched most of the virtual training that was offered I would like some other study resources or tips. I was hoping somebody on this forum has taken this test and has advice to offer on preparation resources. I am very strong in Server 2012 and Hype-V and very much lacking in System Center and clustering, so those will be the focus of my study.

    As far as I know there is no resources available specifically for 409. I know Microsoft is doing a virtualization camp on the 11th of December you might want to take a look at that. I would look at the study material for System Center certifications, for example 70-243.

    This is basically the main material available for it: Microsoft Virtual Academy

    Can you lab for this exam using vmware workstation or virtual box sufficiently?
    Goals for 2019: ICND2 first of all then see how it goes.

    What do you think guys: (from the exam voucher mail form MS)

    Please make a note of this voucher and print out this page and keep it in a safe place. You will need this voucher to register for your free retake in the event that you fail your initial exam.

    This means, that you have two free shots? = If you fail at the first attempt, the 2nd retake attempt with the same code is also free?

    you need the Hardware virtualization for the hyperhisor in hypervisor scenario -> this is the nested virtualization.
    For more info how to set up this settings in vSphere: virtuallyGhetto: How to Enable Nested ESXi & Other Hypervisors in vSphere 5.1
    Maybe it is also possible in workstation, probably you have to edit the .vmx file of your Hyper-V virtual machine
