VCAP6-部署与设计

好像VCAP6-DCV Deploy and Design考试是GA，我想我应该为考试创建此页面，并列出我将用于考试的所有资源。

VCAP6-DCV部署

永远要去的第一个地方是蓝图。https://mylearn.vmware.com/mgrReg/plan.cfm?plan=88753&ui=www_cert在此处列出了考试中的所有内容以及需要反复练习以确保可以尽快完成的所有内容。
如上所述，考试的真正挑战不仅在于了解如何完成任务，还在于如何尽快完成任务，同时又受到环境变化和屏幕分辨率限制的限制。我用于VCAP5-DCA的最佳方法是Chris Wahl创建的方法，他创建了一个很棒的VCAP5-DCA学习表，您可以用来勾选每个目标，如果每个目标都有以下各项。如果您可以勾选下面的所有四种方法，那么可以为VCAP6-DCv Deploy做任何主题，那么您应该已经做好充分的准备：
- 阅读-已研究目标，并阅读了相关材料。
- 实验室–目标的目标已在实验室环境中复制。
- CLI –适用于表示何时完成或研究CLI命令的目标。
- GUI –适用时，用于表示GUI的目标已经完成或研究的时间。
考试的前提条件是您拥有VCP6-DCV。我的VCP6-DCV学习资源中最出色的资源之一是Greg Shields，他为实现Pluralsight的VCP6-DCV的目标而努力。在这里查看他的学习计划。
Graham为这里的考试创建了一个了不起的考试模拟器，VCAP6-DCV Deploy Exam“ Simulator” –免费。我建议您使用它来确保您在参加考试之前对考试的外观有一个良好的感觉（显然没有实际问题）。
vCP6-DCV的另一个有益于VCAP6-DCV部署的重要资源是vBrownbag同事Nick Marshall，Grant Orchard和Josh Atwell共同掌握的Mastering vSphere 6.0。
将部署考试看作是关于在环境中工作和执行任务的所有工作，您需要在某个地方进行练习。有多种方法可以执行此操作，具体取决于您的预算，但是我发现的最佳方法之一是使用AutoLab。
如果您像我一样做过VCAP5-DCA，那么Thom Greene的这篇帖子非常有用，可以看到VCAP6-Deploy蓝图中的差异。
汤姆还做了一个辉煌的帖子都是关于他的策略去考试在这里
凯尔·詹纳（Kyle Jenner）创建的学习指南是一个了不起的资源。这是INSANE，无疑是我遇到的考试的最佳资源之一
那里有很多人的考试经验博客。一个很棒的资源是学习小组的信息，可以在这里从人的经验中听到：https : //plus.google.com/u/0/communities/108002000588564278612
vPentathlon还创建了学习指南 http://vpentathlon.com/vcap-dcv-deploy-study-guide/，Tim IT也 http://tsmith.co/2016/vcap-dcv-deploy-study-guide-series/
Ariel Sanchez Mora打破了他为准备工作所做的动手实验，这些实验肯定是不错的：
- 带有Operations Management 6的HOL-SDC-1602 vSphere：高级主题。这是一个很长的篇幅，很好地涵盖了VCAP主题，缺点也很少，您必须跳过一些VROps主题。它具有1402的更新版本（NIOC v3确实需要），并且确实具有详细的vCenter（AutoDeploy，内容库，资源池）和安全性（证书和本地用户）任务
- HOL-SDC-1627 – VVol，基于Virtual SAN和基于存储策略的管理（您可以延长一小时8倍）。这可能需要很长时间才能完成，但这是值得的，尤其是因为它说明了使VSAN正常工作的整个框架。
- HOL-CHG-1695 vSphere 6 Challenge Lab。对于VCAP来说很轻巧，但是可以在HOL界面中进行一些故障排除。
- HOL-SDC-1402 –从A到Z的vSphere Distributed Switch。这是一个5.5实验室，但介绍了高级DVS设置并提供了LACP示例。
Ariel还介绍了一些必读的主要内容-官方认证平台接口指南。不要使用胖客户端或VMRC打开VM控制台！您会发现禁用ctrl + alt意味着您无法逃脱！
最后是VMware文档，该文档非常繁琐，但必须阅读：
拉米·马哈茂德（Ramy Mahmoud）还在这里做了一份针对考试的深入学习指南，网址为https://ucconnect.wordpress.com/2016/08/21/vcap6-dcv-deployment-study-guide/

VCAP6-DCV设计

类似于部署考试，最好的起点是考试的蓝图，因为您要查询的所有内容都在此处https://blogs.vmware.com/education/files/2015/12/Exam_Prep_Guide_3V0-622_v1中进行了介绍。 2.pdf
该考试没有任何先修课程，但推荐的课程之一是“ VMware vSphere：设计和部署快速通道” 课程。我完成了版本5的课程，这是非常有益的，但是我建议尝试亲自参加，因为该课程的主要好处是研讨会上的讨论，而通过ILT并不是那么容易。
EMEA和LATAM vBrownbag的工作人员开始排队介绍演讲者，以涵盖VCAP6-DCV Deploy目标，并确定了当前VCDX5涵盖的每个目标，因为他们需要像我一样通过本考试以进行升级，希望这些会议可以提供一些获得VCDX的人所期望的顶级信息（当然不是说没有认证的人即使没有更好的能力也不能做到这一点）。我已经开始下面的列表，并将在记录会话时对其进行更新：
- 目标1.1 –收集和分析业务需求
- 目标1.2 –收集和分析应用程序需求
- 目标1.3 –确定风险，要求，约束和假设
- 目标2.1 –将业务需求映射到vSphere 6.x逻辑设计
- 目标2.2 –地图服务依赖性
- 目标2.3 –将可用性要求构建到vSphere 6.x逻辑设计中
- 目标2.4 –将可管理性要求构建到vSphere 6.x逻辑设计中
- 目标2.5 –将性能要求构建到vSphere 6.x逻辑设计中
- 目标2.6 –将可恢复性要求构建到vSphere 6.x逻辑设计中
- 目标2.7 –将安全要求构建到vSphere 6.x逻辑设计中
- 目标3.1 –从逻辑设计到vSphere 6.x物理设计的过渡
- 目标3.2 –从现有逻辑设计创建vSphere 6.x物理网络设计
- 目标3.3 –从现有逻辑设计创建vSphere 6.x物理存储设计
- 目标3.4 –为vSphere 6.x物理设计确定适当的计算资源
- 目标3.5 –确定vSphere 6.x物理设计的虚拟机配置
- 目标3.6 –确定vSphere 6.x物理设计的数据中心管理选项
我非常幸运地成为审阅者的绝妙资源是《IT建筑师：基础设施设计艺术的基础：IT建筑师实用指南》一书。这本书不仅对设计考试来说是惊人的，而且甚至在为VCDX做准备时也是令人惊奇的，并且是由业内一些知名人士撰写的。
我认为，VMware Validated Designs文档必须是考试的最大资源之一。它们是免费的，因此请确保您通读所有文档
设计方法保持相对不变，因此我将用于VCAP6-DCV设计的VCAP5-DCD使用的一些出色资源是：
- Scott Lowe 与Forbes Guthrie和Kendrick Coleman撰写的VMware vSphere设计书。
- 该DRBC设计-灾难恢复和业务连续性基础课程。
- Scott Lowe的Designing VMware Infrastructure Trainsignal视频集。
- 我建议阅读Frank and Duncan的书的vSphere 5.x版本，因为它为下面提到的他们的版本6奠定了坚实的基础。
接下来是VSAN设计指南VMware Virtual SAN 6.0
您将需要知道在某种程度上设计NSX，因此《参考设计：VMware®NSX for vSphere（NSX）网络虚拟化设计指南》是学习此内容的理想选择。
Paul McSharry撰写的VCAP5-DCD官方证书指南是VCAP5-DCD考试的出色著作。
我在VCP6-DCV学习资源中提到的资源是 Nick Marshall和Grant Orchard 撰写的 Mastering VMware vSphere 6。
Duncan Epping和Frank Denneman再次做了出色的vSphere HA deepdive 6.x ，可在Gitbook上免费获得！
我用于VCAP5-DCD，VCAP6-CMA设计以及VCDX-CMA提交的部分资源是VMware vCloud Architecture Toolkit。它针对vCloud，但设计方法适用于多个域。
这可能超出了考试的要求，但我一直在阅读的精采书籍涵盖设计方法，是一本《使用Zachman框架的企业体系结构》。

到目前为止，这是我参加两次考试的所有资源。如果您觉得我错过了什么，请告诉我，如果您是VCDX，并且想提出一个或四个目标，那么请告诉我，祝您考试顺利！！

VCAP6-Deploy & Design

Seeing as the VCAP6-DCV Deploy and Design exams are GA I thought I’d create this page for the exams and list all the resources I’ll be using for the exams.

VCAP6-DCV Deploy

The first place to always go is the blueprint. Everything on the exam and everything you will need to practice again and again to make sure you can do it as fast as possible is listed in here https://mylearn.vmware.com/mgrReg/plan.cfm?plan=88753&ui=www_cert
As mentioned above the real challenge about the exam is not just knowing how to do the tasks but how to do them as quickly as possible whilst being limited by the varying lag of the environment and the restrictive screen resolution. The best method I used for my VCAP5-DCA was one created by Chris Wahl who created an awesome VCAP5-DCA study sheet that you can use to tick off each objective and if you have each of the following for each objective. If you can tick off that you can do any topics for the VCAP6-DCv Deploy by doing all four methods where applicable below then you should be pretty well prepared:
- Read – The objective has been researched and related material has been read over.
- Lab – The goal of the objective has been reproduced in a lab environment.
- CLI – Used to denote when an objective has been completed or researched for the CLI command, when applicable.
- GUI – Used to denote when an objective has been completed or researched for the GUI, when applicable.
A pre-requisite for the exam is that you have the VCP6-DCV. One of the brilliant resources from my VCP6-DCV Study Resources is Greg Shields who made his way through the objectives for the VCP6-DCV for Pluralsight. Check out his learning plan here.
Graham has created a amazing exam simulator for the exam here VCAP6-DCV Deploy Exam “Simulator” – FREE. I would recommend using this to ensure you have a good feel of how the exam will look (obviously without the actual questions) before sitting the exam.
Another great resource from the VCP6-DCV that is beneficial for the VCAP6-DCV Deploy is the Mastering vSphere 6.0 by fellow vBrownbag colleague Nick Marshall, Grant Orchard and Josh Atwell.
Seeing as the deploy exam is all about working in an environment and doing tasks you are going to need to have somewhere to do your practicing. There are many ways to do this depending on your budget but one of the best ways I have found is to use the AutoLab.
If you did the VCAP5-DCA like I did then a great resource to see the differences in the blueprint with the VCAP6-Deploy is this posting by Thom Greene.
Thom also did a brilliant posting all about his strategy going to the exam here
An amazing resource is the study guide created by Kyle Jenner. This is INSANE and is certainly one of the best resources for the exam that I have come across
There are a number of people’s experience blogs out there for the exam.A brilliant resource is the study group information to hear from people s experiences here: https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/108002000588564278612
vPentathlon’s also created a study guide http://vpentathlon.com/vcap-dcv-deploy-study-guide/ as did Tim IT http://tsmith.co/2016/vcap-dcv-deploy-study-guide-series/
Ariel Sanchez Mora broke down the Hands on Labs he did for his preparation and they are certainly good ones:
- HOL-SDC-1602 vSphere with Operations Management 6: Advanced Topics . This is a long one that covers VCAP topics quite well, downsides are not much hands on and some VROps topics you must skip. It has a somewhat updated version of 1402 (really needed for NIOC v3) and does have detailed vCenter (AutoDeploy, Content Library, Resource Pools) and Security (cert and local user) tasks
- HOL-SDC-1627 – VVol, Virtual SAN & Storage Policy-Based Management (you can extend one hour 8 times) . This one can take a long time to complete but it’s worth it, especially since it explains the whole framework that makes VSAN work.
- HOL-CHG-1695 vSphere 6 Challenge Lab . Very light for VCAP but good to do some troubleshooting in the HOL interface.
- HOL-SDC-1402 – vSphere Distributed Switch from A to Z . This is a 5.5 lab but goes over advanced DVS settings and does a LACP example.
Ariel also covered some major must-read – the official Certification Platform Interface guide . Don’t open a VM console with the thick client or the VMRC! You will find that having ctrl+alt disabled means you can’t escape it!
Lastly is the VMware documentation that is at points very tedious but necessary to read:
Ramy Mahmoud has also done a in depth study guide for the exam here https://ucconnect.wordpress.com/2016/08/21/vcap6-dcv-deployment-study-guide/

VCAP6-DCV Design

Alike to the deploy exam the best place to start is the blueprint for the exam as everything you are going to be asked is covered in here https://blogs.vmware.com/education/files/2015/12/Exam_Prep_Guide_3V0-622_v1.2.pdf
There is no pre-requisite course for the exam but one of the recommended courses is the VMware vSphere: Design and Deploy Fast Track course. I did the version 5 course and it is highly beneficial but I would recommend trying to get an in person one as a main benefit of the course is the discussions in the workshop whereas via ILT it isn’t as easy.
The EMEA and LATAM vBrownbag crew are starting to line up presenters to cover the VCAP6-DCV Deploy objectives and have set out an aim of every objective being covered by a current VCDX5 seeing as they need to pass this exam to upgrade like I do and hopefully the sessions can provide some top class information that would would expect from someone who has achieved the VCDX (Certainly not saying people without the certification are not capable of doing it as well if not possibly better). I have started the list below and will be updating it as the sessions are recorded:
- Objective 1.1 – Gather and analyze business requirements
- Objective 1.2 – Gather and analyze application requirements
- Objective 1.3 – Determine Risks, Requirements, Constraints and Assumptions
- Objective 2.1 – Map Business Requirements to a vSphere 6.x Logical Design
- Objective 2.2 – Map Service Dependencies
- Objective 2.3 – Build Availability Requirements into a vSphere 6.x Logical Design
- Objective 2.4 – Build Manageability Requirements into a vSphere 6.x Logical Design
- Objective 2.5 – Build Performance Requirements into a vSphere 6.x Logical Design
- Objective 2.6 – Build Recoverability Requirements into a vSphere 6.x Logical Design
- Objective 2.7 – Build Security Requirements into a vSphere 6.x Logical Design
- Objective 3.1 – Transition from a Logical Design to a vSphere 6.x Physical Design
- Objective 3.2 – Create a vSphere 6.x Physical Network Design from an Existing Logical Design
- Objective 3.3 – Create a vSphere 6.x Physical Storage Design from an Existing Logical Design
- Objective 3.4 – Determine Appropriate Compute Resources for a vSphere 6.x Physical Design
- Objective 3.5 – Determine Virtual Machine Configuration for a vSphere 6.x Physical Design
- Objective 3.6 – Determine Data Center Management Options for a vSphere 6.x Physical Design
A brilliant resource that I was very fortunate to be a reviewer for was the IT Architect: Foundation in the Art of Infrastructure Design: A Practical Guide for It Architects book. This book is amazing not just for the Design exam but even in prep for the VCDX and has been written by some of the top names in the industry.
The VMware Validated Designs documentation has to be one of the biggest resources for the exam in my opinion. They are free so make sure you read through all the documents
Design methodologies remain relatively the same so some brilliant resources I used for my VCAP5-DCD that I will be using for the VCAP6-DCV Design are:
- Scott Lowe’s VMware vSphere Design book with Forbes Guthrie and Kendrick Coleman.
- The DRBC Design – Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Fundamentals course.
- Scott Lowe’s Designing VMware Infrastructure Trainsignal set of videos.
- I would recommend reading the vSphere 5.x version of Frank and Duncan’s book as it gives a brilliant foundation to their version 6 book mentioned below.
Next is the VSAN design guide VMware Virtual SAN 6.0
You will need to know to design NSX to a certain degree so the Reference Design: VMware® NSX for vSphere (NSX) Network Virtualization Design Guide is perfect to learn this.
A brilliant book for the VCAP5-DCD exam was the VCAP5-DCD Official Cert Guide by Paul McSharry.
A resource I mentioned in my VCP6-DCV Study Resources is Mastering VMware vSphere 6 by Nick Marshall and Grant Orchard.
Again Duncan Epping and Frank Denneman have done a brilliant vSphere HA deepdive 6.x which is available on Gitbook, for free!
A resource I used for my VCAP5-DCD, my VCAP6-CMA Design and portions of for my VCDX-CMA submission was the VMware vCloud Architecture Toolkit. It is aimed at vCloud but the design methodologies apply across multiple domains.
This might be over what the exam requires but a brilliant book I have been reading which covers design methodologies is the Enterprise Architecture Using Zachman Framework book.

So far these are all the resources I have for the two exams. If you feel I have missed something then please do let me know, if you are a VCDX and want to present an objective or four then let me know and good luck for the exams!!
