and i don’t accept…. i market 1st..but after beginning exam i didn’t receive a question as you wrote “At the beginning of each test, the test engine will ask if you want your scores forwarded to LPI. Say yes.”

Hi Greg,
I’ve been supporting two inherited Netapp environments for the last few year (with lots of help from their suuport team and google) but I finally got the green light for training.. My worry is that the Boot Camp course maybe be too advanced and the NetApp Basic Admin course too basic and I am unlikly to get both courses so at what level is the Boot camp course aimed?

Comment on Data ONTAP 8 7-Mode: What is it? Why aren’t you running it? by Art C.

@greg.porter , you’re replying to a spammer. He’s not complimenting your blog, he’s just here for the backlink to his own site.

Anyway, thanks for explaining 7-Mode. I noticed that next to the version numbers when listing out all of my filers in OnCommand System Manager and was wondering why the newer ones said that.

I have EMC, IBM, and NetApp storage in my data center … NetApp wins hands down for maintainability.

I posted this on another blog post here, but I’ll reiterate here. I went through the above steps and received Linux+, LPIC-1, Novell CLA 11, DC Tech Spec, and SUSE 11 Tech Spec.

Since LPI has now partnered with SUSE, there is another certification to get.
