How to Pass SCJP or OCPJP in 2 weeks

Hi All,

I would like to share my experiance with OCPJP 1.6 exam in this post. I had prepared for 2 weeks for this exam and passed this exam with 83%. Let me share the details about my preparation.

I am an experianced programmer with experience in many Object Oriented Programming languages including Java and C++.

First thing I used for my preparation is the book: SCJP Sun Certified Programmer for Java 6 Exam 310-065 By Kathy Sierra and Bert Bates.This book is an excellent one for preparation of OCPJP exam. You dont have to buy a copy of the book.Freely downloadable PDFs are available on the net and download and use it.

Spend 1 full week on the above book , go thorough all the topics carefully. Prepare a Java environment and try as much programs as possible, which will make the concepts clear as well as it will boost confidence.

Carefully attend the exercise questions at the end of each chapter and analyse your results. If required take the same exercise once again.

Print the "2 minutes Drill" sections at the end of each chapter and keep it with you as a last minutes revision material.

Once you are done with this book and 1 week has been passed by now then you need to start with practice tests.

I had purchased https://www.whizlabs.com practice test and attended all the practice tests carefully. This is a very important step and try to finish this within next 3 days :). See my progress report from https://www.whizlabs.com below.


I was not completely satisfied with my results and I wanted to pass with the very first attempt. I had purchased Kaplan practice test: https://www.selftestsoftware.com which is the official practice test proposed by Oracle.I had spent my next 2 days on this.

One thing you need to do at this stage is to identify the area were you are weak and practice more questions on that area. All these practice tests have the option to do that.

Go through your notes , 2 minutes Drill copies etc on the day before the exam and get ready for the exam.

Now comes the Big Day , be calm and write the exam. The questions look very simple sometime but try to find the real catch in the question.

And below is my results :). Wish you all the Best!!!!

How to create a minikube single node cluster for learning Kubernetes

In this post I will explain how to setup a minikube single node kubernetes cluster using AWS EC2 instance which would help anyone who is trying to learn kubernetes and also help them to gain practical knowledge in kubernetes by running kubernetes commands, creating kubernetes objects etc. Minikube is a single node kubernetes cluster which means a kubernetes cluster with only one node that is a single VM. Minikube is only used for learning purposes and it is not an alternative for a real kubernetes cluster and should not be used for development and production usage. In this example I have launched an AWS EC2 instance with below configuration where I will install minikube and related tools. AWS EC2 Instance Configuration AMI: Ubuntu Free tier eligible 64 bit Instance type : t2-large ( For me t2-small or t2-micro is giving performance issues due to less memory) Once the EC2 instance is up and running, login to the instance using below command on terminal. If you are using wi

log4j - How to write log to multiple log files using log4j.properties

In Java applications some times you may need to write your log messages to specific log files with its own specific log properties. If you are using log4j internally then first step that you need to do is to have a proper log4j.properties file. Below example shows 2 log4j appenders which write to 2 different log files, one is a debug log and another one is a reports log. Debug log file can have all log messages and reports log can have log messages specific to reporting on say splunk monitoring. # Root logger option log4j.rootLogger=ALL,STDOUT,debugLog log4j.logger.reportsLogger=INFO,reportsLog log4j.additivity.reportsLogger=false     log4j.appender.STDOUT=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender log4j.appender.STDOUT.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout log4j.appender.STDOUT.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss} %-5p %C:%L - %m%n     # Direct log messages to a log file log4j.appender.debugLog=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.debugLo
