Red Hat RHCE 9 (EX294) Capsules: Certification Guide
()
About this ebook
MAGIC has just started !!!
Red Hat RHCE 9 (EX294) Capsules will help you prepare and practice for the exam.
The Capsules are based on Red Hat® Enterprise Linux® 8/9, and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.2.
We will walk together through the exam objectives; which are publicly available in the EX294 Exam Objectives Section in Red Hat official site; that are required before going to the actual exam. Practicing a lot is a key point here, so, please, practice, practice, practice!
Note: EX294 based on RHEL 9 and AAP 2.2 exam objectives were not yet released when writing this :)!
We will review examples for objective points from EX294 exam objectives that will let you get ready for the exam.
To make it clear! This is not the actual exam of-course as this is violating Red Hat exam NDA "Non-Disclosure Agreement"! This is for Educational purposes only to get you ready for the exam and get your hands dirty with practices and examples!
Also, I will never ever explain each and every word I'm talking about here. I follow the capsules concept. If you need something else, you will find many; and I mean it; many resources out-there which cover the theoretical stuff in more details. Are we clear?!
By the way, you can manipulate any files or configurations mentioned in the book as much as you want for the purpose of practicing things well, why not! Just please revert it back or keep what we've mentioned in the capsules there; if it does not conflict with any other things you would put/change; when done with practicing so we can continue with our capsules!
What will be included in the book to be able to master RHCE (EX294) Exam:
Preparing ansible-navigator to manage the environment.
Separated and combined examples to try each and every exam objective.
Knowing modules == Knowing Ansible! We will work with many of them!
Roles. Let's create and use some!
Do you know Ansible Galaxy world?!
LVM and Storage is a critical component. Let's make it simple here!
Generating custom reports using Ansible!
Vaults!
LAB preparation steps that we will use during practicing the provided examples.
Exam tips and tricks ;) !
and many more...
Again; all this will be in a short, simple, and easy to implement "Capsules" that will allow you to understand easily and quickly with simplicity what is needed and how to implement it even in real life! Capsules are short and direct to the point so let's keep it like that!
This is also important and let us make it clear:
I'm assuming that you are familiar with Ansible and having experience with RHEL Administration tasks even through Ansible or without it. Being RHCSA certified engineer or having equivalent experience. I will explain in-short what I'm doing to keep the capsule simple and easy! But, please make sure you are really familiar with Ansible, RHCSA, and RHCE topics in order not to be unsatisfied with the capsules! As mentioned before, there are lots of resources out-there for learning such things. Here you will get ready for the exam through Capsules!
Are you ready?!
NOTE:
THIS IS A COPY FROM Red Hat RHCE 8 (EX294) Capsules Certification Guide with some adjustments to cover new things in RHEL 9 and Ansible Automation Platform!!! I make my capsules dynamic which allows me to just update them with changes between releases!
Don't wonder if I used references or links from older Red Hat versions "why not! `ls` command still `ls` since it was created!"; as far as those references still valid to what we are discussing!
Your feedback matters to me, so, please let me know your feedback and your review about this eBook.
Thank you!
