What a teaser :-)

I'm a former SCSA and SCNA also.  I was very sad to see Sun Microsystems go away.  I worked diligently to achieve those cert designations, and was very proud to have done so.  Well, even though they are archived, I'm still proud to know that I did attain them.  When
delivering my UNIX classes back in the 90s, I used Solaris.  Those 
were the days :-)

@Trevor This expert extra is now unlocked if you want to give it a watch.

Hello Jim,

Thank you for alerting me to the Expert Extra being available.
I absolutely want to, and will give it a watch.

Happy 2022!!!

Where can we see this video now? I have an active RHLS.

Is it part of one of the ansible courses?

@BramMertens This is part of the Expert Extras videos section, 200+ are included in Standard and Premium Red Hat Learning subscription. To access, go to the catalog in your subcription and filter to "Expert Extras" or click the deep link in the original post above to be directed to the video in your subscription.

Perhaps I miss something but the only links I see in the original post point to marketing pages on the RHLS.

Found the video as you described via the catalog. It is at https://rol.redhat.com/rol/app/seminar/exps223-1.

The search results also returned an older video covering the same topic: https://rol.redhat.com/rol/app/seminar/exps158-1 .

For what it's worth: the content is covered in RH294 as well (https://rol.redhat.com/rol/app/courses/rh294-8.4/pages/ch02s03) so INHO this is not really an "extra".

My knowledge of Ansible configuration files was definitely extended.

Thank you for making this video available.
