Hello everyone!
I am contemplating going down the RHLE certificate path, at least get the RHCSA.
I currently have CentOS 7 on my main machine, and am running it 100% of the time for my personal and work needs.
I was however contemplating switching to Fedora, given the larger/wider software repository that is available through rpmfusion.
Is it possible to study for the RHCSA using CentOS purely as a single or multpile VMs?
RHCSA Question - RHEL 6/7 necessary on bare metal for study?

CentOS is RH without the copyrighted stuff (like icons and such things). I used it to study for RHCE and had no issues.
So yes, I think it's good enough for RHCSA.

You could also look at the nux-dextop repo for things that are often in rpmfusion.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.

Right. How about studying for the RHCSA using CentOS as a VM only, that is not on just bare metal? Is it possible, or would I lose out on a certain kind of aspect for the test?aks wrote:CentOS is RH without the copyrighted stuff (like icons and such things).

Yes, that is what I am currently using. So far so good, and I've also requested a package or two to be added on their forums without any issue (as long as the dependencies weren't massive), which I think is pretty neat.TrevorH wrote:You could also look at the nux-dextop repo for things that are often in rpmfusion.

i would advice to use 2 virtual machines; one for centos 6.x and one for centos7.x... maybe even try a fedora22
there are some changes with this from 6 to 7 and by the time you get into the real world you would probably need knowledge of 7, even though many places are running old un-updated distros as 6. But at RHCSA level every command and any requirement is version independent. Doesn't hurt to repeat same lesson in both versions
