VMware vSphere: Advanced Administration [v8]

Description

This course provides hands-on training to provide students with a range of skills, from performing routine VMware vSphere 8 administrative tasks to complex vSphere operations and configurations. Through lab-based activities, students are immersed in real-life situations faced by VMBeans, a fictitious company. These situations expose students to real-life scenarios faced by companies that build and scale virtual infrastructure. This course uses lab exercises and does not provide guided stepby-step instructions. To complete the scenario-based lab exercises, you are required to analyze each task, and then research and identify the required solution. References and suggested documentation are provided. This course includes labs to teach students how to effectively navigate and manage vSphere. The course helps prepare students for the VMware Certified Advanced Professional – Data Center Virtualization Deploy examination.
