Other than for Virtual Labs, I haven't touched 2010, so I'm not sure if DAC is SP1 or SP2. I'm assuming that DAC is SP2 since the library file at TECHNET indicates the "Understanding Datacenter Activation Coordination Mode" entry applies to Exchange Server 2010 SP2.
And yes, I'm sure people will wonder why I'm going for a 2010 cert when I haven't touched the real thing. I've got a lot of experience with Exchange, from 4.0 early adopter to 2003 and need the 2010 cert to get a job. According to the people who do the hiring, my MCP for Exchange 5.5 won't cut it.

I know the test was updated for SP1, but wasn't aware of SP2 specific questions. DAC wasn't an SP2 addition. If it has it will be worth knowing the changes in SP2 for example both methods of Hybrid Config (though not sure if that's even covered, I think it's only in the Office 365 equivalents). But as regards DAC it is most certainly going to be SP1+ supported scenarios rather than RTM.

He's a good writer, wore out one of his books when I was running an Exchange 2000 service for a company. And I will disagree with you, the test covers SP2 as well. I got nailed by a question for Datacenter Activation Coordination Mode. It popped up and I'm like "What the.???" Had absolutely no clue about it. The test material I'd been using was limited to SP1.

I used the Sybex book on Exchange 2010 as it covered both sets of material. -------------------------- Sent using BlackBerry From: John Matteson [mailto:john.matte...@gmail.com] Sent: Saturday, June 23, 2012 12:22 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues <exchangelist@lyris.sunbelt-software.com> Subject: Study Materials for Exam 70-662 and 70-663 Good afternoon to you all: I was wondering if any of the list members had suggestions for study material for the Exchange 2010 exams. A lot of what I find on TechNet seems to be mid-level (20,000 foot overview) but really doesn't get down into the nuts and bolts of configuring 2010. The MSPress book is okay, but covers only SP1, while the test covers SP2. All help would be appreciated.
