I have MacBook with M1 processor and I want to learn to RHCSA exam. There are no ARM distributions yet and I can’t create local environment, would it be ok to provision EC2 centOS instance? I’m just afraid that I won’t be able to recreate some test cases.
Answer
You can use EC2 however if I remember correctly AWS will charge you extra for using proper RHEL. Without the distribution media you will also not have the lab exercises that are buried in the Extras folder. These exercises are the tasks you will be required to complete to successfully pass the exam. You will also have to make sure the environment is sufficient on your own for each of the tasks.
If you can, get one of the better RHCSA test prep books out there that includes the labs. Even better is to take the RHCSA/RHCE prep class Red Hat does. The instructors will go through every task and be able to assist you if you have questions. Plus the classroom environment is setup properly. You can’t go wrong with that!
Good luck and I hope you pass your exam.
