I’m scheduled for my class at the Microtek facility in Chicago for a March 23rd – 26th class. I’m taking the train down as parking is 36 bucks a day, ouch! I’ve been working on preparing for the class by reading 4 books (mostly because I had them already). The first two are these (oldies but goodies):
Now, I know, I am taking the Vsphere class, but I’ve got the quick start guide that I’ll be devouring shortly. In these posts, I’ll also talk about the lab environment I have built in the spare room in my apartment (which warms up a cozy 8 degrees when the servers are on). Plus I’ll be sure to document my experience with the class and my (fingers crossed) eventual success at the certification test. Then I need to get a job with a larger VM implementation
