Just Passed My SharePoint 2013 MCSE!

February 2, 2013 by Joel Jeffery

Over the last two days I sat exams 70-331 and 70-332 (Core and Advanced Solutions of SharePoint 2013). Along with my MCSA for Windows Server 2012 (exams 70-410, 70-411 and 70-412) I am now an MCSE for SharePoint 2013! Yay me!

SharePoint 2010 Exams and Microsoft Second Shot For Free

October 5, 2010 by Joel Jeffery

Are you taking Microsoft Certified Professional exams with Prometric between now and 30 June 2011? Then you should consider buying a discount multi-pack of exam vouchers from Microsoft – the "Microsoft Certification Exam Pack" from Prometric. If you’re only going to sit one exam, you can pay 15% on top of the usual exam price and have a second shot at the exam – should you need it – for free. If you’re sitting exams as part of a course at a training partner testing centre, then it is likely they will have second shot vouchers ready for you as part of the deal.

Certification Pack Savings Second Shot
5-exam pack 20% Included with each exam
4-exam pack 20% Included with each exam
3-exam pack 15% Included with each exam
2-exam pack 15% Included with each exam
1-exam Regular Price Add 15% to exam price

There are some gotcha’s though. You need to visit Prometric’s Exam Retake page to reclaim your free retake if you do not pass first time. Watch out though, as it can take up to 72 hours for them to send you the email with your free voucher.

On a fileshare, all you have is path and filename. That's the only axis by which you can classify your stuff. So you nest folders, within folders, within folders. Then you pack the filename with extra bits of information - like the initials of the last editor, or the version number. 
You don't need to do this in SharePoint. Use metadata. 
Add columns to your libraries. Text columns, number columns, choice columns, managed metadata columns. Each file can have several of these values simultaneously. But a file can only live in one folder at a time. 
Use metadata.

#spthingaday 060 - SharePoint Search. Changing the #spthingaday 060 - SharePoint Search. Changing the Search Topology.  #SharePoint, #SharePointSearch.. The Search Service in SharePoint on-premise is made up of six components.

Crawl, Content Processing, Index, Analytics, Query and Administration.

Each of these components can be placed on one or more servers in your Farm.

To make any one Search component support high availability, you need to make sure there are at least two servers in your Farm running it.

SharePoint Server 2010 had only 3 types of component, and Microsoft let you manage their placement via Central Admin, in the browser.

From SharePoint 2013 onwards, this was deemed too difficult to express graphically.

For SharePoint 2013 and 2016, topology changes need to be made via PowerShell.

Tomorrow, we'll look at just what PowerShell cmd-lets you need to use.
