Status as of Sunday, October 27:

Hi Elaine,

We are still missing 78 questions (plus the 6 Gayle sent you for Zimbra which I do not have in the master database). I have phoned the providers, sent them email, and sent you status. I am very happy to write up questions for these modules. I wrote up questions for vSphere 5.1 Snapshots using Joe’s slides.

I have QA’d Horizon View, vCNS, and VSA. I have sent status to Cathy.

Status:
Horizon Mirage (42) - Linus Bourque (last contacted 8/17/13) (he owns 117 questions of which he has sent us 75). 10/27/13 second request.
vCenter Operations (18) - Note to Steve Jones today 10/8/13 (his phone number is 919 389-6395) - no response
vCloud Automation Center (18) - Joe Desmond – request 10/27/13
vCNS (18) - Note to Mark Jones today 10/8/13 (phone 414 213-6187) - 10/25/13 Sent QA to Cathy and revised the multiple answer questions.
vSphere 5.1 (18) - ones done by Joe Desmond (we have all of John Krueger's (24) - I just created 18 questions today. Sent to Joe for approval.
I will watch for Joe Desmond, Linus Bourque, and Steven Jones response.

Trivia Questions Review
  • Check to eliminate all multiple choice questions. Come up with a suitable substitute. (Can do it myself)
Trivia Questions QA

Review Trivia questions on web and make sure they are correct (no truncated copy). Look at Elaine's blog to determine which trivia questions have been posted. Every Tuesday Elaine blogs. Currently:

  • * Brian Orchestrator (10/24/13 I checked two modules; questions are not there)
  • Linus View (done 10/24/13)
  • * Brian ESXi (no questions on web 10/25/13)
  • Mark vCloud (done 10/25/13)
  • Brian VSA (done 10/25/13)

DO NOT WORK ON THESE

  • vFabric/Spring
  • vSphere 5.0
  • Product Chalk Talks
Future

Curriculum Team wants to take over videos but they have not gotten funding. So this work could go away. No timetable.


Mary,

  • Please try to get these quiz questions in from John on his videos.
    • vSphere 5.0 done
    • vsphere 5.1 done (total: 39 questions)
  • Plus we need to redo the SRM questions – we need 3 questions per video and I think since Andrew is not available and the woman who sent them to you did it wrong perhaps you can listen to the video and pull out 3 questions.
  • And also if you can follow up with
    • Steve Jones (note to Steve 10/8/13) and
    • Mark Jones (note 10/8/13) on their videos. I need at least one video done by Thu this week.

Note to Elaine 10/8/13 9:30 am

Hi Elaine,

Status this am:

  • John Krueger: we have all of his questions for vSphere 5.0 and vSphere 5.1.
  • Steve Jones: resent request today. Will watch for response.
  • Mark Jones: resent request today. Will watch for response.
  • SRM: Evelyn Baymon-Boyd sent us 30 questions in December. What is missing are three questions for the Concepts/Architecture module. HOWEVER please clarify what you mean about her doing these questions wrong. I don't recall hearing anything about that. So:
    • I am attaching the spreadsheet of SRM questions
    • I will provide three questions for the Concepts/Architecture module

Do let me know if I misunderstood the SRM part.
