Hooray

Well that's it then, on my second try I passed the 291 exam with 842, much improved score than my first 641 so now I'm a a fully paid up MCSA. So at the moment I'm a very happy man and am busy updating all the people that need to know, the welcome kit has also already been ordered so should get that through in a few weeks.

 

Now I shall have a few weeks rest before embarking on any more studying, but I already have the books for the next exams. I have ordered Citrix xenapp book as I am really interested in learning more about citrix (and also becoming a CCA) and also I have ordered a book on SQL 2005 (exam 70-431) which is another technology I am interested in. Both exams will benefit my employer as both products are used and whilst I administer a couple of Citrix farms I know very little about sql so I thought this exam will ease me in nicely and will also be my elective sorted for the MCSE if I decide to go the whole hog (as we are a Novell shop then at the moment there is no point).

 

So where does this leave the blog, well I think it will probably have to be updated to show what I am studying at the time so you will see plenty of posts on sql server and Citrix Xenapp, but please still feel free to pop by if something is pepping your interest.

 

So now I'm re-thinking my lab and I'll already removed my rras servers as I wont be needing those for a while and I'll have to create a couple of new servers to house sql databases and citrix applications. So once I have my lab sorted I'll post a new network diagram.
