~ Preparation Phase:

## Research and Planning:
My journey began with meticulous research on RHCE requirements and objectives. Creating a solid plan helped me structure my study schedule effectively, i was helped by my Redhat Trainer & friends to Prepare and sloveAll my doubts, regarding Ansible.

## Study Resources:
I leveraged a variety of resources, including official Red Hat documentation, books, Offical Redhat labs, and practice test. The rich content provided by these resources played a crucial role in my preparation.

## Hands-On Practice:
Emphasizing hands-on practice was key to my success. I engaged in labs, exercises, and scenarios that simulated real-world situations, providing practical insights that proved invaluable.

## Overcoming Challenges:
No journey is without challenges. I encountered obstacles, but by staying focused, seeking help when needed, and adjusting my study approach, I overcame each challenge that came my way.
If you have pursued any Redhat Certification, it would be easy for navigating.

~ Achieving a Perfect Score:

My strategy was to use Ansible-navigator because in RHEL9 the ansible-navigator is used, you could solve with Ansible-core.

While Writing your YAML file you must know the modules of Ansible, and the working of Playbooks, roles, ansible-galaxy, collections, inventory file, configuration file, etc.

You must also check that if a certain playbook has been implemented on the manage nodes,

ansible -m command "your command for manage node" all

if you are unsure about a playbook that you have a spelling mistake or space indentation then you could also dummy run a playbook (in which the playbook will be not implemented on the actual system) which will show all the errors if present.

ansible-navigator run -m stdout Playbookname --check

## Tips for Aspiring RHCEs:
To help fellow learners, I’ll offer practical tips based on my experience. From time management to focus areas, these insights can guide you on your RHCE journey.

## Conclusion:
In summary, my RHCE journey was a challenging yet rewarding adventure. I’m grateful for the experience and excited to encourage others to pursue their certification goals.

## Final Thoughts:
Continuous learning and professional development are vital in our ever-evolving industry. Whether you’re aiming for RHCE or another certification, remember that each step contributes to your growth. I invite you to share your experiences or questions in the comments.

Stay tuned for more tech adventures, and let’s continue pushing the boundaries of knowledge together!
