Great feat @Ravi_Shanker ! All the best for your RHCA !

Just read the instructions carefully and try to do what you are asked to do. Good luck!

It can be done, but it's a bit tricky. From what I remember, almost every RH exam has tricky questions that seem very simple, but don't necessarily have to be...Anyway, congratulations!

No, and I know nobody who got any points for that eiher. It's not like I do USB blacklisting (ever), so this was one of those topics you learn, you know it exists and forget about it.

Back then I had discussion with all my colleagues who took that exam, we all agreed what has to be done, what we did made made sense (what we did, tested and compared the results).

I don't know what all of us missed. As we have no way of having feedback on the item we collectively decided to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

@martindxc -

While this post isn't a violation of the NDA, the discussion you had with the colleagues that took the exam is a direct violation of the NDA and both you and your collegues could lose that certification and have other certifications pulled for not following the NDA. You are not allowed to discuss exam tasks, questions, or answers to anyone. It doesn't matter if you have all taken the exam. As an examiner, I can't discuss it with other examiners. 

As a reminder, you are never allowed to discuss exam questions or possible solutions with anyone. The only exception is when you are using the direct exam feedback form when you are inquiring for exam support, but as you mentioned, you can provide feedback there, but likely won't get a direct answer or resolution. The team will look at your request and can review your results and confirm or in very rare instances update/change if something is found, but you still will not get feedback on what was missed and why.

Guys how long did you wait for the exam results? Maybe I got spoiled by getting previous exam results fast (definitely less than 2hrs, sometimes way faster).

Now I'm waiting 48+hrs (I know, 3 U.S. business days), it's almost Friday evening. Not the best weekend ahead of me..
