Free Nutanix exams again? – YES!
About a month ago I wrote about two new Nutanix exams:
Nutanix Certified Associate 6.10 (NCA 6.10). Blueprint guide;
Nutanix Certified Professional – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCP-MCI 6.10). Blueprint guide.
Both exams are based on the recently released 6.10 LTS version of AOS.
Today both exams go live and are available to schedule with appointments starting December 10.
The good news is that you can take both exams for free, just register until December 13.
Use those discounts during checkout:
NCA 6.10 Discount Code: NXFRNCA24
NCP-MCI 6.10 Discount Code: NXFRNCP24
Recommended free online courses for preparing:
Nutanix Hybrid Cloud Fundamentals (NHCF) and Enterprise Cloud Administration (ECA).
Let me remind you that on this blog I have two prep guides for both NCA and NCP exams:
Preparing for the Nutanix Certified Associate 6.5 Exam
Preparing for the Nutanix Certified Professional – Multicloud Infrastructure 6.5 Exam
Both guides are based on version 6.5, but if you use the same documentation and courses based on the new version, and follow the methodology, you will be fine.
Did you know about Veeam Managed Hardened Repository ISO? This is a Rocky-based Linux distro, which is already pre-hardened to comply with DISA STIG requirements. In addition, Veeam Hardened Repository ISO provides simplified installation and management; there is a text-based user interface that includes all the basic features needed to configure OS and use it as a Veeam Repository.
You can get more information about features, requirements, and limitations on the Veeam R&D Forum.
With the build 0.1.17, this ISO left the technical preview state and got the production-ready status, including Veeam Experimental Support, so you can consider putting it to use.
In this article we will look at how to deploy a server, using Veeam Hardened Repository ISO and how to create a hardened repository using this server.
