VMware vSphere - Optimize and Scale

( Duration: 5 Days )

This VMware vSphere - Optimize and Scale training course provides skills for configuring and maintaining a highly available and scalable virtual infrastructure. Through a mix of lecture and hands-on labs, you configure and optimize the VMware vSphere features that build a foundation for a truly scalable infrastructure, and also discuss when and where these features have the greatest effect.

By attending VMware vSphere - Optimize and Scale workshop, delegates will learn to:

  • Configure and manage vSphere networking and storage for a large and sophisticated enterprise
  • Use VMware vSphere Client to manage certificates
  • Use Identity Federation to configure VMware vCenter Server to use external identity sources
  • Use VMware vSphere Trust Authority to secure the infrastructure for encrypted VMs
  • Use host profiles to manage VMware ESXi host compliance
  • Create and manage a content library for deploying virtual machines
  • Manage VM resource usage with resource pools
  • Monitor and analyze key performance indicators for compute, storage, and networking resources for ESXi hosts
  • Optimize the performance in the vSphere environment, including vCenter Server

  • Attend a training on VMware vSphere - Install, Configure, Manage or equivalent practical exprience
  • Administration experience with ESXi and vCenter Server
  • Experience with working at the command line is highly recommended.

The VMware vSphere - Optimize and Scale class is ideal for:

  • Experienced system administrators, system engineers, and system integrators
