lots of inaccurate information
I've only gone through half of the book so far and have about 7 months of vmware experience but I found a lot of issues with the information it was giving. Specifically in the chapter summary review questions. One example is a basic "what does PSC stand for?" Throughout the chapter, the author clearly defines it as Platform Service Controller, and I knew this from my own research when I worked with it, but the book says the right answer is actually Performance Service Controller. Throughout the book, the "vcenter for windows will no longer be supported beyond 6.7 so upgrade to vCSA" is written over and over. I swear it must've been more than 100 times in those first 6 chapters. One of the question asks if it's best practice to deploy a vCSA appliance over vcenter for Windows. I would think based on what they keep saying it would be true but they list the answer as false.. One other example of misleading info is when they asked whether a vCSA upgrade is considered an in-place upgrade. I would think not since all it does is spins up a completely new VM and migrates the configs over, powers off the old vCSA, powers on the new one and assigns the old vCSA IP to the one. The book says it's an in-place upgrade. How? Aside from the misleading information, the book is filled with a lot of funny spelling mistakes. Seems kind of rushed. Not really a big deal, just found it funny. I would've given this 1 star but it does have a lot of decent high-level info if you're just starting out. Won't really master much as the book gives you generic details for most vmware features. It's more of a "here's how you do a, b, or c" not really a why would u do a over b. It does have some easy to follow step-by-step procedures.

Misleading title
Not a bad overview but very high level. I don’t think the title “Mastering” is really accurate. You won’t be a master after reading this book alone
