Any changes with HDPCA Cert?

[#1]

Hello team,

I am planning to appear for HDPCA exam after 3 days... are there any changes with the pattern? Will it be on HDP 2.4 or 2.5 ?

Shall I be provided with two different clusters to run scenarios like 'distcp' or do I need to setup separate clusters during the exam?

Do we need to bother about disabling firewall, enable ports or any other security aspect that might disallow configuration tasks?

Please help me with high level information so that I dont end up wasting much time during the exam.
