Tuxhub, zer0signal and I get an email that this thread has been updated, but your post does not show up in "Zero reply threads" where most people look for questions that they can answer. "View latest posts" gets far less attention.
But to answer your question, there are no questions. It is a test with 16 hands on exercises. To start with, you don't have root passwords so you must break into some of the systems (that's not one of the exercises) and you need to know how to set up YUM for a local repository. After that you can choose what exercises you want to solve. The 16 exercises are worth 300 points, presumably equally valued but no one from Red Hat will confirm that; you need 210 points to pass, so 70%, or 12 correct exercises. They are computer graded. Either something works or it doesn't.
You need to know RPM, YUM, how to create an RPM package, network configuration, iptables, LVM, iSCSI, LDAP and Kerberos, KVM, GRUB, NTP setup, system logging, Apache setup, SMTP setup, DNS setup, NFS setup, CIFS setup, FTP setup, CUPS setup, SSH, VNC setup, ACLs and SELinux.
The test is timed. There is no Internet access; no cell phones; no reference material. The only documentation you have available are READMEs, info and man pages that are on the system. SELinux is in enforcing mode and everything you configure must work with it in that mode.
Good luck with your test.
