I started watching this series looked like fun. I have to say one thing i absolutely love how Adam explains how to build a lab environment and lays out all the show resources to use. Hope to see this in more show series it helps a lot. What was the laptop specs for the entire lab setup you use Adam?
Also I mentioned previously i do like the key point episodes and review questions you always do. You do a great job Adam. (as all the edutainers at ITPro.tv)
@Brian-Bauer , My apologies for not answering you sooner. I did not see the post when it went in, as I was in"holiday mode" and by the time I started back to formal "work mode" in the beginning of January, there were other posts, and I just did not scroll far enough down...
My laptop has 64 GB of RAM, an 8 core Pentium i7 processor and a 2TB SSD drive. I run Windows 10 Pro as my O/S.
I create and run all of the VM's used in my shows using Hyper-V on the laptop, and occasionally I also use VM's running in Azure.
I am glad that you are finding the show both entertaining and valuable. If you have any qustions, or need any thing along the way, my direct e-mail is: adam@itpro.tv
Feel free to be in touch as needed.
Cheers,
Adam
@Adam-Gordon Hi Adam,
I'm going through this course now and learning a ton along the way!
Question, though - in the section "So You Want To Build A Lab?", there are several software portions which are notated with "I'm providing this to you", but I don't see any download links anywhere. What am I missing?
Thanks for a great course!
Chris
I hope all is well. Please take a look at the picture i have included below.
It shows you that if you go to the OVERVIEW EPISODE for the CASP+ course, you will see the EPISODE FILES option under DOWNLOADS.
That will allow you to download a single .ZIP file, if you have not already done so, that contains ALL THE NOTES and ADDITIONAL MATERIALS from the course that I reference.
In the .zip file, you will find a folder called FILES, and in that folder, you will find the CASP SETUP GUIDE .TXT file that is in the picture and highlighted.
That file explains how to setup the lab environment to match the one I create and use in the course, and also explains, as you can see n the highlighted portion of the text at the top of the document, that I may or may not provide certain software, and that you will have to go and search the web for the most recent version(s) and download and use those when you are ready to build out your lab.
The software that I do provide is in the CASP LAB RESOURCES folder inside of the FILES folder.
Good Luck and please let me know if you have any other questions as you move through the course.
Cheers,
Adam
