Preparation guide:

Although the objective of this exam is to test the ability to use Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization to implement Linux virtual systems, it is not a test of system administration skills. Red Hat does recommend prior Linux systems administration experience.

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization installation, configuration, and use

You should be able to perform the following tasks:

  • Install Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager and any dependencies
  • Use Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager to:
    • Create datacenters and clusters
    • Manage hypervisor hosts
    • Configure storage
    • Create Red Hat Enterprise Linux virtual machines
    • Develop pools and templates
    • Set up Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager users
  • Install and configure a Red Hat Virtualization Hypervisor to support guests and attach to a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager
  • Import installation media for creating new virtual machines
  • Perform management tasks, such as collecting logs, creating bookmarks for specific events, and more
