VCP6-DCV Official Cert Guide (VMware Press) – VMware Press does not yet have an official guide for the VCAP6-DCV Deploy Exam, but you can make could use of your VCP6-DCV Official Cert Guide. The coverage of the VCP6-DCV and VCAP6-DCV exams are very similar, but one exam is multiple choice and one is hands-on. This VCAP6-DCV Deploy Study Guide makes many references to specific items in the VCP6-DCV Official Cert Guide. http://www.pearsonitcertification.com/store/vcp6-dcv-official-cert-guide-covering-exam-2vo621-9780789756480

If you are preparing for VCP6-DCV, you should consider begin efficient by beginning your VCAP6-DCV Deploy exam preparation while preparing for VCP6-DCV. As you prepare for specific VCP6-DCV exam objectives, you can practice the corresponding VCAP6-DCV Deploy exam tasks hands-on. This will reinforce your skills and knowledge of the topic and better prepare you for the VCP6-DCV exam. It will shorten the amount of time you require to prepare for VCAP6-DCV Deploy exam after passing the VCP6-DCV exam.

VMware Hands on Labs: As an alternative to building your own lab environment, where many vSphere features such as vSAN and vVOLs may be difficult to implement, consider using the VMware Hands on Labs (HOL). For most of your preparation, you can use HOL-1710-2 or HOL-1721-SDC-6 (or any HOL in which vSphere 6.0 is deployed). In this case, just ignore the actual lab materials and just use the environment as you wish to practice your work. If you make a mistake, you know that you can end the lab and restart it again with a fresh environment. For major items in which you need a lot of work, consider using the associated HOL, such as: [IQ21) ["1+=25 (D_O G@W/.X\'/(40/. d ["1+=25 (D_ 9&? <1,> D +, e ["1+=25 [,5=>)$O G@W/.X\'/(40/?

You should use the keyboard at Programs > Windows Ease of Access > On-Screen Keyboard

For example to copy use Control-C and to paste use Control-V

Search for a file in linux:

In case you need to search for a file in ESXi or vCenter Appliance Find / -name “rbd-ca*”

TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS:

In case you need to start and stop services when troubleshooting Stop / start / edit services (logon as [email protected])

Restart management services on ESXi host: REF http://bit.ly/2bcNR4B

OR In vSphere Web Client, select the host, click Manage > Settings > Security Profile and Edit the Services. Select the desired service and use STOP, START, and RESTART buttons

Remediate vCenter upgrade issue: During the uninstallation phase, the vCenter Server 5.x instance is unregistered from the SSO server. During the import phase, the vCenter Server 6.0 instance is registered with the SSO server. If a failure occurs prior to the registration, SSO does not have an entry for the vCenter Server. You may need to revert back to the vCenter 5.x server . If a failure occurs prior to the registration, SSO does not have an entry for the vCenter Server. You may need to revert back to the vCenter 5.x server. If a failure occurs during the import or first boot phase, after the export phase, you can re-attempt to upgrade to vCenter Server 6.0

rather than revert to vCenter Server 5.x. For more details, see VMware KB 2108938. pp 432 Configure the vCenter Appliance:

upgrade vmware tools: REF: VCP6-DCV Cert Guide page 271 To automatically upgrade VMware Tools, the virtual machine must be powered on, and the guest OS must be running. You can determine whether the VM is running the latest version of VMware Tools by viewing the Summary tab of the virtual machine (see Figure 7-10). If VMware Tools needs to be upgraded, you see the message Automatic Tools Upgrade, which you can click to open up a window to begin the process. The Advanced Options text box allows you to add options to the VMware Tools Upgrade. For example, if you want to perform a silent upgrade of VMware Tools for a Windows operating system, you could enter the following in the Advanced Options text box:

/s /v “qn” /l “c:\windows\filename.log”

Fault Tolerance Method: Perfomance (RAID-1) or Capacity (RAID-5 / 6) You can configure RAID 5 on all-flash clusters with four or more fault domains. You can configure RAID 5 or RAID 6 on all-flash clusters with six or more fault domains. RAID 5 or RAID 6 erasure coding requires less additional capacity to protect your data than RAID 1 mirroring. For example, a VM protected by a Number of failures to tolerate value of 1 with RAID 1 requires twice the virtual disk size, but with RAID 5 it requires 1.33 times the virtual

disk size. RAID-5 method requires a minimum of 4 hosts. RAID-6 method requires a minimum of 6 hosts.

In VSAN 6.2, a new advanced host option SwapThickProvisionDisabledhas been created to allow the VM swap option to be provisioned as a thin object

The PDL condition was added in vSphere 5.0. The storage device sends a SCSI sense code to the ESXi Host, specifying that the storage device has become unavailable. A good example of a PDL is a LUN failing but the storage array continuing to function. The storage array sends a SCSI sense code to inform the ESXi Host that the LUN is permanently disabled. Once this occurs, the ESXi Host stops sending I/O requests to the storage array

Connectivity between Vmkernel virtual adapters on each host, that is set for vMotion traffic VMs connected to a network that is not on an internal only switch. For standard switches, ensure the port group is named consistently on each host. For dvSwitches, ensure the VMs are connected to distributed port group that is accessible by each host. Ensure the VM resides on a datastore that is shared with each host.

Test central syslog http://buildvirtual.net/configure-centralized-logging-on-esxi-hosts/ Example: esxcli system syslog config set --loghost vc01.vmlab.loc

the following commands could be used to run vm-support and to unpack its data, where the working directory is set to a VMFS datastore named NFSA. In this example, assume that the vmsupport command automatically named the resulting TGZ file esx-esxi02-2015-10-20--22.14.tgz:

vm-support –w /vmfs/volumes/NFSA cd /vmfs/volumes/NFSA tar –xzf esx-esxi02-2015-10-20--22.14.tgz

Use vm-support to generate data to input into ESXTOP. For example, the following command can be used to collect performance data for 60 seconds at 2-seconds intervals, using a datastore named NFSA as the working directory:

vm-support -p -d 60 -i 2 –w /vmfs/volumes/NFSA tar –xzf esx-esxi02-2015-10-20--22.14.tgz cd esx-esxi02-2015-10-20--22.14 ./reconstruct.sh esxtop –R esx-esxi02-2015-10-20--22.14

Salting: REF: VCP6-DCV Cert Guide page 607 sched.mem.pshare.salt controls the virtual machine’s ability to participate in transparent page sharing. ESXi 6.0 and recent patches to ESXi 5.x introduced the concept of salting to address recent security concerns associated with transparent page sharing (TPS). TPS is allowed only within a virtual machine (intra-VM TPS) by default. Because the ESXi Host configuration option Mem.ShareForceSalting is set to 2, the sched.mem.pshare.salt is not present in the virtual machine configuration file, and thus the virtual machine salt value is set to a unique value. In this case, to allow TPS among a specific set of virtual machines, set

sched.mem.pshare.salt for each virtual machine in the set to an identical value. Alternatively, to enable TPS among all virtual machines (inter-VM TPS), you can set Mem.ShareForceSalting to 0. In this case, the value ofsched.mem.pshare.salt is ignored and has no impact. Or to enable inter-VM TPS as the default but yet allow the use of sched.mem.pshare.salt to control the effect of TPS per virtual machine, set the value of Mem.ShareForceSalting to 1. In this case, change the value ofsched.mem.pshare.salt per virtual machine to prevent it from sharing with all virtual machines and restrict it to sharing only with those that have an identical setting.

ESXi pass phrase we can set the password / pass phrase in the web client on the ESXi host with Advanced System Settings > Password quality control or with a command.

So, the key to understanding the parameters is: min=N0,N1,N2,N3,N4 N0 is used for passwords consisting of characters from one character class only. The character classes are: digits, lower-case letters, upper-case letters, and other characters. There is also a special class for non-ASCII characters, which could not be classified, but are assumed to be nondigits. N1 is used for passwords consisting of characters from two character classes that do not meet the requirements for a passphrase. N2 is used for passphrases. Note that besides meeting this length requirement, a passphrase must also consist of a sufficient number of words (see the passphrase option below). N3 and N4 are used for passwords consisting of characters from three and four character classes, respectively. To require a passphrase, include this: passphrase=N SSO password policy
