JB421 - Not found resources for guided exercise

Latest response

Section 1.2: Guided Exercise: Journaling Incoming Transactions

Resources table describes, that I should have (where? why? wtf???):

Resources
Files: /home/student/labs/journal-transact
Sample data: /home/student/data/orders
Solution: /home/student/solutions/journal-transact

File component reference: http://content.example.com/fuse6.3/x86_64/cameldoc/file2.html

What's the magical way to obtain /home/student/labs/journal-transact? Where should I find it or download it?
Where should I found all that resources at all?

======
Procedure 1.1 Steps:
Import the starter project.

Click File → Import. Select Maven → Existing Maven Projects and then click Next.

Click Browse next to the Root Directory field and browse to the /home/student/JB421/labs/journal-transact folder.

Yeah, guys, I just have "message-files" from very first exercise (Section 1.1: Reading and Writing Files).

Second question. Do I really have a limit for 80 hours of working with lab machines? What?!

Third question. Do I have some way to use my own machine instead of yours for exercises? I can understand, why can I need it for exams, but for ordinary exercises I do not want to have my eyes bleeding watching your VM/VDI on my 4K monitor.

P.S. Please, guys, look at MongoDB University and copy their learning courses infrastructure - they are awesome.

Hi Vadim,

I'd suggest that opening a support case to find assistance with your content questions for JB421.

Yes, you do have an 80 hour runtime limit on the machines in the class.

I don't know of a way to use your own machines instead of Red Hat's to perform the lab exercises in the class. You may be able to adjust the display settings in the machine to make the display better, there are a few RHEL6 based environments (I don't recall if this class is one or not) that are not display adjustable. The machines themselves don't have a recognized adapter and display that are 4K compliant though, so the best I've seen is something like 1440x968 (or something similar). The 4K monitor has such a dense pixel rate, it's going to render that resolution in a fraction of your available screen real estate, and that's not likely to change.

The other thing you might try is adjusting the font sizes in the applications (like terminal or the web browser) to display things larger.
