Hi Zahid,

It's been awhile since I took the 5.x exam.  I don't have any notes on how the exam objectives map out to the study guide.  I do know that the exam is based on our manuals and our customer training courses. 

Sorry, I can not be much more help on this.  Maybe some of my other team members that have taken the exam more recently will chime in.

Good luck on your exam.

Thanks,
Wally

Hello Zahid,


The Exam is based off the Study Guide and Objectives PDFs that I've linked below. If you open the Study Guide, each section's Objectives and Topics can be found in the following books:

Veritas Cluster Server for Windows Fundamentals
Veritas Cluster Server for Windows, Implementing local cluster
Veritas Storage Foundation 5.0 for Windows Administrator's Guide

(I've received these books from our training dept. here, so unfortunately, I would not know off hand how to access them other than that, except for the Admin Guide, which we have available for public download).

While the Study Guide lists the objectives in a step by step fashion, in reality, the material that covers each objective is spread out over all three of these books, which will take some time to track down.

Here are the links:

I've also uploaded a small Zip file with a collection of notes in an outline format for the first two sections. This may provide you with some assistance in your studies, as well as mapping out the information structure between the books and the Study Guide.

Hopefully this helps :)
