Passed Ex280

[sharath_vutpala]

Hello all,

I am glad to share with the community that today I cleared the EX280 - Red Hat Certified OpenShift Administrator Exam ( Version 4.12 )

After failing my first attempt, I spent more time covering the topics that I missed earlier and did all the guided exercises available in the handbook. I would like to share a few points which helped me to pass the exam. 

• Questions are covered according to the objectives mentioned the exam description here https://www.redhat.com/en/services/training/red-hat-certified-openshift-administrator-exam?section=o...
• Some of these topics are not covered in the Handbook for version 4.12, make sure to revise the missing topics
• Since Offline Documentation is available during the exam, get used to the documentation so that we can easily navigate

Hope this will help someone who is preparing for the exam. Best of luck!

Thanks.

I got 196 out od 300 in my first attempt. Now retake scheduled on 15-May-2024. Just ine question i request clarifications. 

In exam, I was not able fetch NFS Server IP and NFS export path. I tried below commands

$ oc get sc

$ oc get sc -o yaml

$ oc get pods -A | grep -i nfs

$ oc describe sc

I was just getting storage class name, provisioner but not NFS server IP, path. Please suggest what is best way to get these details so that I can create PV, PVC properly.

Hi @SurendraK ,

If you can't find those detail using the above commands, NFS server details might be present in the Instructions page where all information about the workstattion is present. 

Wishing you good luck!

Thanks for reply. Can below command give that information

oc get sc <nfs-provisioner-name> -o jsonpath='{.parameters.server}:{.parameters.path}'
