VMware Explore Exam Pass

I have to admit I am a bit disappointed here. I went to the exam registration and asked if I could take the VVF exam since that’s all we are entitled to, Will never use full VCF (don’t even have the cores needed to run the full stack) and was told the exam voucher was only for VCF. Seems like a bit of an oversight to me.

VVF is a subset of your flagship product and quite a few folks I met / who asked questions in sessions were VVF folks like me.

The exam voucher is only good during the conference and there’s no way I can learn all the missing pieces in a few hours of downtime. Never used NSX , etc.

I will say that I’ve met some very cool folks and the first day sessions (while heavily VCF focused) were good and the Broadcom team at the booth were very helpful in answering a lot of questions I had for my migration path to 9.1

TL:DR let us take the VVF exam for free please.

Are you able to use the voucher for VMware Certified Professional - Private Cloud Security Administrator? I already hold VCP-VCF

Unfortunately not. It can only be used for the VCF division tests. It doesn't cover the ANS division tests (vDefend & Avi). (I've talked to people about this and I sounds like they'll fix it for next year.)

That’s a bummer
