HA Certifications

[PRASHANT_4]

Hi,
I want know if any certifications are available for HP Clustering? If so what are they? If silly question, sorry!!

[Steven E. Protter]

Its called High availability certification.

They recommend Service Guard I and Advanced Service Guard as pre-requisites.

Its a hands on test, so some real life experience is probably a requierment.

I am not clear from your answer,

Both SG1 & Advanced SG cert are pre-requisites, are they conducted as tests(NO hands on) and after that appear for HA cert exam, which is hands on. Is this correct ??

Can you please provide codes for these exams? And where can I buy coupons of these and appear for the same?

Best regards
Prashant

Service Guard I and Advanced SG are *NOT* tests, they are HP Classes. It is recommended to take these classes before you take the HA test.

To find out more information, go to http://education.hp.com/ and then select Certification, then select whatever region / country you are from. From there you should be able to find out information for the HA Certification test.

Here is information for US/Canada for the HA Certification Exam:

Hi,

When I did this certification, the courses where not mandatory, but highly recommended (I took them).

Beware that the "HP-UX Certification" is a pre-requisite for HP HA advanced certification.

Cheers,

Rui.

I just passed th HA Exam 3 weeks ago - very difficult.

I've been working with MC/SG for 2.5 years, took the MC/SG Level 2 class 1 month prior to the exam.

Here's some info on it:
