The 36 chapters are divided into three key areas: UNIX Fundamentals, HP-UX System Administration and HP-UX Network Administration. These chapters cover topics that are on HP’s recommended certification courses – UNIX Fundamentals, System and Network Administration I, System and Network Administration II, and HP-UX for Experienced UNIX System Administrators – as well as on official exam objectives list. 1. UNIX Fundamentals (chapters 1 to 6, and 22) covers the basics of UNIX and HP-UX. Most information is not specific to a particular UNIX flavor, rather, includes general UNIX concepts, file manipulation and security techniques, vi editor, shell and awk programming, basic commands and other essential topics. Unlike many other similar books, a chapter on shell scripting is presented after covering HP-UX System Administration area. This is done purposely to provide readers with practical examples based on the knowledge they gain from UNIX Fundamentals and HP-UX System Administration chapters. 2. HP-UX System Administration (chapters 7 to 21) covers the HP-UX-specific system administration concepts and topics including server hardware information and mass storage stack; virtualization technologies and HP-UX installation; software and patch management; user and group administration; LVM and file system administration; EVFS and swap management; system shutdown and startup procedures; kernel configuration and management techniques; backup and restore functions; printer and print request management, job automation and process control; and system logging and performance monitoring. 3. HP-UX Network Administration (chapters 23 to 36) covers HP-UX network and security administration concepts and topics such as OSI and TCP/IP reference models; network hardware overview and LAN interface administration; IP subnetting and routing techniques; basic network testing and troubleshooting; internet services and sendmail; time synchronization (NTP) and resource sharing (NFS, AutoFS and CIFS) services; naming (DNS, NIS and LDAP) services and automated installation techniques; and high-availability concepts and system security tools and practices. Throughout the book figures, tables, screen shots and examples are given for explanation purposes. The book includes 863 exam review questions with answers. | | | Product Details: | | | Author:

 Highly recommended !!Jul 22, 2009
By Jose F. Vasquez Ramirez
I bought this for a friend, here are the comments he asked me to post:
"The book was a very good guide to get my CSA certification, it is very complete and with the exception of a couple of typos (already discussed with the author) I am very satisfied with the money I invested on it. The appendixes were a great help as well as the very extensive list of questions the book includes at the end.

good resource, but outdated. it doesn't reflect the latest exam. there's no up to date book. in order to apply to this exam, you should complement your studies.

Very good bookJan 12, 2009
By Jaroslaw Zadlo
I have just finished this book and passed the HP0-A01 CSA exam. The book covers the topics in a very practial way. There are plenty of examples and not much theory. Over 800 example exam questions helped me significantly.

Very useful study guide for the 11.31 certification, although lots of duplicate questions at the end and still some errors that need to be corrected in the text.

Very Informative and Relative in ContentMay 23, 2011
By Kevin Larson
I'm still in the process of reading this item but in the 200 pages or so that I've read, I've found the book to be very informative and spot-on topic wise.
