Hi,

I'm looking for a red hat certified virtualization administrator preparation guide.
I've looked on amazon and google but can't seem to find one.
Is there one ?

Thanks

you already should know this

this is redhat
a OS that you have to buy
for testing / certification for that operating system , contact redhat .

buying the required support contract gets you access to the redhat knowledgeable

https://access.redhat.com/home
sign in with your redhat credentials you set up with the license

https://access.redhat.com/documentat...Certification/


you NEED to be loged in to access the link below
https://access.redhat.com/downloads/
"Red Hat Certificate System"
is one of the links
but you have to be loged in

And, to be quite honest about this particular case ... this subject ("virtualization administration") is an area-of-knowledge that I call "a 'slice' vertical." It's a niche of specialized know-how that not-only consists of some rather esoteric information, but also that exists in a much greater context. You have to know, not only about the [Red Hat ... but it doesn't have to be Red Hat] host, but also about the systems that are being virtualized and, really, the business that's running them and why. "The whole shinola."

Therefore, "reading a book about it" might be like "reading a book about swimming." (i.e. "That won't keep you from drowning.") In this case, I think you need to be signed-up for a class, and not the cheapest one you might find. You need to be in the immediate company of other people, instructors, software and hardware for many days. And your employer should be the one footing the entire bill for you.

Certifications are just things that you hang on the wall. Like that bachelor's degree that you got in "Appreciation of 17th Century Art History." :rolleyes: Even though there's always someone out there who's willing to sell it to you, it won't do a thing for you by itself. The more-esoteric the subject matter becomes, the more you need a classroom and time. This costs some serious money, if done properly, and your employer should be willing to invest it in you.
