Overview/Description
Desktop operating systems are at the forefront of most offices today. VMware desktop virtualization technologies allow for multiple operating systems to be run on a single physical computer. Some examples of this would be Windows applications running on a Mac with VMware Fusion or several Windows and Linux applications running simultaneously on Windows or Linux computers using VMware Player. This course examines the features of the VMware desktop product suite, which includes VMware Workstation, VMware View, VMware Player, VMware Fusion, VMware ThinApp, and VMware ACE. It...
Overview/Description
Virtualization allows multiple, resource-intensive applications to be run on one physical system. VMware ESX and VMware ESXi are bare-metal hypervisors, which can install directly on top of a physical server, sharing their resources with the host, and with each other. VMware Server is a hosted virtualization platform that can be installed like an application onto an existing server, allowing the creation of multiple virtual machines. This course will examine the features of VMware Server, ESX, and ESXi, along with the current and legacy operating systems that can be...
Overview/Description
After the vSphere network and storage designs have been completed the appropriate amount of compute resources for our physical design can be determined. Determining compute resources involves reviewing CPU resources, examining server density, consolidation options and sizing resource pools. Once the compute resources for our physical design are determined the virtual machines can be configured for the vSphere physical design. This course reviews considerations such as using a raw disk map or a VMDK for a virtual machine, virtual machine sizing, determining share...
Overview/Description
The first step in developing a vSphere design is creating a conceptual design. The purpose of the conceptual design is to provide a high level outline of all business requirements and components. This course explains the process of gathering and analyzing business requirements and analyzing application requirements as well as how to determine any risks constraints and assumptions. Once you have your conceptual design completed, you can move ahead to creating the logical design which details how the network components such as switches, hosts, and storage work with or...
Overview/Description
In order to design and integrate VMware solutions into the enterprise virtualized environments, it is important to have an understanding of the overall design process and framework. This course explains datacenter design principles and methodologies that will be used in a virtualized enterprise design.
Target Audience
Systems engineers, system administrators, vSphere operators and support personnel working in virtualized server environments. Candidates who are seeking to learn about design and integration options available in the vSphere Enterprise product. This includes...
Overview/Description
The logical design captures business, service, availability, manageability, performance, recovery and security requirements. Once this is created, we can start to work on the physical design. Details such as network components and storage options can be specified. This course explains how to take the logical design and create the physical network design from it. This includes describing designs for VLANs and private VLANs, switches, redundancy, security policies and settings, and additional networking considerations. Determining the most appropriate storage technologies...
Overview/Description
Virtual networking within ESXi is a key area for every vSphere administrator to understand. Designing and building virtual networks with ESXi and vCenter Server bears some similarities to designing and building physical networks, but there are enough significant differences that an overview of components and terminology is warranted. When you create virtual networks, you have two options available; you can choose a virtual standard switch or a virtual distributed switch. This course deï¬nes the various components involved in a virtual network as well as the factors that...
Overview/Description
Just as physical machines require hardware upgrades or changes, a VM might require virtual hardware upgrades or changes to meet changing performance demands. Once a VM has been created, the vSphere Client makes it easy to manage the VM. Virtual ï¬oppy images and CD/DVD drives can be mounted or unmounted as necessary. vSphere provides support for initiating an orderly shutdown of the guest OS in a VM, although this requires that VMware Tools be installed. VM snapshots allow you to take a point-in-time picture of a VM so that administrators can roll back changes if needed...
Overview/Description
As a vSphere administrator, there are various options available to you when configuring vSphere standard and distributed switches. There are also some additional features and functionalities when it comes to a vSphere standard switch versus a vSphere distributed switch. Once the switches are in place, there are various ways that you can manage your virtual network environment from within vSphere. There are many third-party utilities and appliances that allow you to add more functionality to your networking environment. Physical tools on the physical environment can be...
Overview/Description
Creating virtual machines is a core part of using VMware vSphere, and VMware has made the process as easy and straightforward as possible. There are many options available when creating a virtual machine and several factors such as your computing needs, implementation timeline, and complexity of the environment will determine which method is more appropriate. This course covers the creation of virtual machines, the use of virtual machine templates, virtual machine clones, as well as virtual machine conversion.
Target Audience
Anyone wishing to learn the fundamental...
