Questions about getting ready for your Red Hat remote exam?

[stripura]

Hello Team,

Could we use a dock as an usb hub to connect the devices (external webcam, wired mouse, usb drive) and to connect the network (using CAT6 cable - the port on my laptop is busted and not working) even though I am not using external monitor during exam ? I would be taking exam from laptop itself

Thank you.

Hello @stripura,

You can use a docking station as long as only the essential accessories are connected to it. In your case, they would be: wired webcam, USB drive, ethernet cable and a wired mouse.

Hello, 

I schduled my exam for next week, 

Do I need speakers for the exam, or is it enough to have only a camera and microphone? And in case speakers are required, can I use an external USB sound card since my speakers won't plug directly into the computer?

Hello @Michael1,

Speakers are not a requirement for remote exams. The proctor will communicate with you via a chat applet with in the proctoring application. 

All the best for your upcoming exam.

If i will lose network connection or it will be ocured some power interruption during the exam how i will be able to contact the proctor, and what about the exam retaking policy in sittuation where i will unable to resolve this issues quickly?

Hi @Michael1 ,

In the case of a total power/internet outage during your exam where you are completely cut off from the Proctor, you can reach for the phone and wait for a call from the support team and if power/internet not being restored within a reasonable period of time, you may not be able to continue with the exam. A re-take in such an event is a completely subjective matter depending on a few aspects. You would need to raise a ticket with the support team and request for a review. They will look into it and revert to you.

Let me also reiterate a previous comment from my colleague that its the candidate's responsibility to get ready for the exam - https://learn.redhat.com/t5/General/Questions-about-getting-ready-for-your-Red-Hat-remote-exam/m-p/1...

Hi, I got this email from redhat that "we had approved an extended monitor with wired mouse and keyboard.", and I was curious If I can use my 32" TV as extended monitor. Because I dont want to have problem with font size as the last time. 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Megatron ,

The external display device should be a monitor. Using TV instead of a monitor is not allowed at this time.

Hi,

On september 17th I purchased a ticket (422640) for my EX200V8K exam that hopefully I'll be attending tomorrow.
Today I've noticed that new content (Manage containers) has been added to its objectives. Does this update affect my exam? I understand that these new objectives were not requested at the time I purchased the ticket.

Thanks in advance.

I believe from 1 October the ex200 can contain the manage container content added to the courses.
