Hello everybody,

I'm having trouble with the integrated microphone of my laptop. While I could tweak it using alsamixer in my OS that is not possible when I've booted into the Red Hat Exam Environment. My microphone has way to low volume there.

As I understand from the FAQ headsets are not allowed during remote exams.

Could someone recommend an USB-micorphone that is known to work with the Red Hat Remote Exam Environment?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @JoergK ,

You may use a basic wired headset if there are no other alternatives for input mic. The headset will have to be placed on the work table and your proctor will guide on its placement.

Hello @ManojKaliatnil ,


I am totaly confused.

Have you read through the Remote exam ebook? The ebook guide should explain the remote exam requirements. If you still have questions, this video, should provide a fair idea.

To answer your question, yes, the exam is accessed using a bootable USB and an external camera is a mandatory requirement.

Please use the links provided above and let me know if you still have questions.

Hello,

I would suggest working with the exam support team (Live chat contact is available in page 1 of the ebook).
Apple hardware do not play well with the remote exam ISO (See: Operating system: Macintosh section of the ebook) and you may need some tweaks before getting it to boot. I hope the live support can help you.

Regards,

Just downloaded the ISO indicated in the Prep Guide https://static.redhat.com/downloads/training-certification/rhrexboot.iso and boots fine in my system. I setup keyboard, microphone and Timezone, then when I login (this obviously requires to be connected to the internet) and do the compatibility test I got the following failed tests: "TypeError: NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource." This is for the "You must be able to connect to the remote exam desktop", "A 1Mbps download connection to the remote system is required" and "A 1Mbps upload connection to the remote system is required"

I have a 200Mbps symetric fiber internet connection 

My exam is tomorrow, what am I doing wrong? Are your endpoints working? Thanks.
