It's not a bad study guide for the exam. Bobb Roger's articulates the information very well and most of what he covers is actually on the exam. He does make several mistakes throughout the course but those should not affect the student when taking the certification exam. This is well worth thr price of this course.

the course barely scratched the surface. The resources discussed in the course are not available for download anywhere in the course. IF somebody is an absolute beginner, then this course can be taken, but for serious preparation for Sys Admin Exam for Solaris 11 this course is nowhere close to be complete. I can spend couple hundred EUR more for the course, but the course has to be meaningful and cover the topics properly.

The course, I find it somewhat vague, and outdated, the form of oral expression is very weak, and ultimately it does not meet my expectations, I have validated the program content of an oracle exam, and definitely, the different levels leave much to be desired,

Not in depth whatsoever for the cost of the course. If you are taking this exam after 2016 this barely touches anything you will see on test.

I'm pretty disappointed right now in the virtualization section. it comments that zones are the only (weird) virtualization possible, when in reality, depending on processor, platform, etc, there are (7) different types of virtualization, including zones, LDOM's (t-series), Domains (m-series), dynamic domains (10k, 15k & 25k), Oracle Virtual box, Xen, KVM. I'm also disappointed were the author incorrectly states that only Solaris can be ran in zones, this is incorrect also, other operating systems, primarily linux & BSD are available via Brand-LX, Brand-Z, and etude for older Solaris versions. Another big problem with the Zones modules is stating that everything is shared. Yes, that is true till configured, but pools, etc all memory, processors, disk space, etc to be allocated or restricted to zones. Not expecting a detailed explanition here for beginners, but to state it doesn't exist is just wrong. Closing out virtualization, specifically X86/x64 only virtualization, Solaris typically can live anywhere BSD, linux, windows, OS/2 or any other operating system can, to include QEMU, VirtualBox, VMWare, etc.

The course is perfectly outlined and teaching is on point. I feel like I have already passed the OCA Sol 11 certification. I will write in two days and my moral to write and pass is very high right now. Great job Bobb Roggers and the VTC.

Clearly spoken at a good pace and good coverage of the relevant topics. One of the better on-demand courses I’ve taken

It seems like this course was written by someone with very little knowledge about the subject and then presented by someone with zero knowledge about the subject.

on some points it could go a bit deeper in de materie then it does now. i think assesments would help the course - install oraclebox (wich is free) install solaris (wich is free) and then give some things to do instead of saying milion times .. you just play with it. its not really a course more of a short video lecture.

Se tivesse uma legenda sobre o que está sendo falado seria melhor ainda, se ela fosse traduzida para o portugues seria muito mas muito bom!

I've also read the OCA Sys Admin Guide for 1Z0-821. BOth are equally helpful. This course because it gives physical examples.
