Thanks for the collation of resources, very handy as I’m in the midst of preparing for my VCP4, booked for sitting by the end of this month. I’ve gone for the free retake….

One comment I would make is that the VMware documentation is not infallible, so if something doesn’t seem right, validate it against other docs or in a lab (I’ve got both ESX and ESXi running in VMs on Workstation). For instance, the number of ports per vSwitch is incorrect in the official documentation (it states 1016) but ESX showed 4088. Also, the number of vSwitches per host is incorrect too. I noted that your notes are correct Forbes .

Cheers guys and good luck!

Best of luck Andrew. Good tip about the testing center, I don’t want to have to go all the way to Surrey. I was wanting to book it for sometime in the next couple of weeks. Do you how long the queue is?

I went for the 30% now vs. possible 100% later – I’ll let you know how it turns out in a little over a week.

P.S. BCIT Downtown is the only VUE site in Vancouver offering the exam and its schedule is packed – you might have to drive to Surrey.
