Transcript:
Welcome to a demo of the new features of the Certified OpenStack Administrator exam. As of June 2017, the exam is offered on the Newton release of OpenStack, and has three new key features that we’ll be walking through today.
First is easier access to OpenStack documentation. When you start the exam, you’ll see a prompt letting you know that you can open a new tab for docs.openstack.org. Keep this open throughout the duration of the exam, and refer back to it whenever you need to.
Second is easier discovery of all the resources you need for the exam. When you start the exam, you will be in the student folder in the home directory. Inside this folder are all the resources that will be referred to throughout the exam, including openrc files, clearly marked in their own folder.
Third is an addition of a question navigation menu. Previously, you could only move one question at a time with the arrows on the left side of the screen. Now we’ve added a full menu that lets you skip to any question at any time. We recommend you still answer the questions in order, but you can now go backwards and forwards easier if you need to.
