I have some practical experience with VERITAS Volume Manager and File System. Now I want to appear for VERITAS Storage Foundation 5.0 certification. From my previous experience with Solaris certification I can say that some kind of preparation with sample/practice questions would be highly useful. Please let me know your thoughts, useful links and certification sites.

DESCRIPTION
The utility performs administrative tasks, such as assigning, defining, deleting, and enforcing allocation policies in a specified VERITAS
File System.
policy_name specifies the name of an allocation policy. The maximum length of an allocation policy name is 64 characters.
mount_point specifies the directory on which the file system is mounted.
Keywords
Assigns allocation policies to a Storage Checkpoint.
Assigns allocation policies to an individual file.
Possible values for flags are:
Set this flag on a directory and subsequently the files created in the directory will inherit the allocation policies.
Assigns the default allocation policies for an entire file system.
Defines a new allocation policy
or changes an existing allocation policy named policy_name at the specified mount point. In the latter case, the previously
specified volumes are replaced by the newly specified volumes.
Possible values for order are:
Allocations are done from the volume in the order in which they are given in the allocation policy.
Allocations are done from the volume specified in the allocation policy
that has the most free blocks.
Allocations are done from a volume that is selected in a round-robin
fashion from those specified in the allocation policy.
