Hi all, will anyone please share me some material on RHCE/RHCT, I am fighting for the Quality Engineer in RedHat, and that may help a lot in the coming written exam. Many thanks and Merry Christmas! Cheers, Xiaobo

The RHCT/RHCE exams are not written, they are performance-based. The best guide to study from is the one provided by Red Hat located at https://www.redhat.com/certification/rhce/prep_guide/

As a previous reply mentioned, there are two (2) factors in the Red Hat certification process. The first is the written examination. The second part is a hands on test, to administer a box. Many people who do very well on the written examination, fail the hands on test. Learn how to do that, very well, before you take the certification tests. GL

When I first took the RHCE on RHL 7.1 (2001) there was a written exam section and two hands-on sections. When I updated my RHCE on RHEL 4 (2005) there were two hands-on sections. According to the RHCT/RHCE prep guide http://www.redhat.com/certification/rhce/prep_guide/ the RHCE guidelines are as follows:
For RHCE exams given on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and higher, the exam is organized as follows:
* Troubleshooting and System Maintenance 2.5 hours * Installation and Configuration 3.0 hours
Where do you find information stating that there is a written section to the exam?

If they have completely eliminated the written examinations, that, IMHO, makes the Red Hat certifications even more respected, than they were with written/hands on examinations. One can memorize things for written examinations (and many people do), but the hands on is something one either knows or doesn't know.
I'm sort of preparing for the RHCE at the moment (booked in for the exam but it was cancelled due to insufficient numbers ... sob).
To the extent that reading is useful, and having looked at a couple of RHEL 5 and RHCE books, the plain ol' RHEL5 Deployment Guide seems to cover the material pretty well.

yes you are right. when i took my RHCE exam the last august there were two hands-on tests but no written test. If one does not score 80+ in the second part of the first half, then he will not be qualified as RHCE even if he scores 100 in the rhce section of the second half.
