Description

Are you interested in learning or improving your knowledge of VMware vSphere virtualization? Do you want to learn from someone who has practical working experience in VMware virtualization? Are you seeking knowledge on how to improve on the job if you are already managing the VMware vSphere environment? If you fall into the above set of students, you have made the right decision to enroll in this course.This course is explained step-by-step. I have already published two courses on Udemy with students across the globe, so I know how to impact knowledge. I make complex concepts simple for my students. As of the time of publishing this couse, my already published  couses are rated "Highest Rated"It is a good decision to acquire or improve your knowledge of Vmware virtualization because Vmware is one of the leading virtualization platforms today. They powered some of the cloud providers today and also run on hyperscale cloud providers like Azure, AWS, Google,etc.I have over 15 years of working experience in IT infrastructure and have been working with VMware virtualization for over 10 years. I got my first certification as a VMware Certified Professional (VCP 5.0) in 2014, and over the years I have mastered VMware Virtualization. If you enroll in this course, you will acquire the knowledge to administer VMware Sphere Virtual Infrastructure to the level of an expert. The course is for both beginners and advanced students. who wants to learn or improve skills in VMware virtualization.Here are some of the topics:VMWARE VSPHEREIntroductionESXi HypervisorVirtual MachineVcenterNetworking in vSphereDeployment and Planning ToolsESXI DEPLOYMENTIntroductionDeploy the First ESXi ServerPost Deployment Configuration via DCUIAccessing and Navigating ESXi Server via Web clientDeployment of Windows VMConfigure VM Auto StartConfigure NTP for the HostPerform other post-VM and ESXi Deployment configurations.Deploy the Second ESXi Host (Assignment )Solve the assignment togetherVCENTER OPERATIONSCreate DatacenterAdd Hosts to DatacenterProvision NFS Share Storage to the HostsHost Cluster Concept & Best PracticeCreate Host ClusterAdd Hosts to ClusterProvision iSCSI Datastore to the HostsVMware vCenter Host Clustering FeaturesIntroductionConfigure vMotion NetworkPerform Storage vMotion (Move VMs from Local Datastore to Share Datastore)Perform vMotion Operations (Migrate VMs to another Hosts)Working with Fault Tolerant (FT)Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS)Hosts and VMs AffinityUPGRADING VIRTUAL INFRASTRUCTUREIntroductionUpgrade vCenter Server Using -Reduced Downtime Upgrade (RDU)Hosts Upgrade with VMware Life Cycle Manager to Update the Host in a clusterUpdating VM Hardware Version -VM ToolWORKING WITH DISTRIBUTED SWITCHIntroductionCreate a Distributed Switch (Management, VMs & vMotion)Create Portgroups on the DvSwitchAdd Hosts to the Distributed SwitchMigrate Hosts from Standard Switch to DvSwitchManage Distributed SwitchNetwork Security PoliciesAdd the Second DvSwitch for Storage and Migrate from Stannard to DvSwitchPerform Cleanup on (Standard & DvSwitch)PERMISSION IN VSPHEREIntroductionWorking with Vcenter local SSO domain to provide permissionsIntegrate AD to Vcenter (Windows Authentication)Integrate Active Directory to vCenter with AD Over LDAPIntegrate Active Directory to vCenter with AD Over secure LDAP (LDAPS)Assigning Roles and PermissionsTest the Permissions ConfiguredVM MANAGEMENTModify VM SettingsWorking with TemplateWorking with SnapshotClone VMResource Pool………..DISK OPERATIONS MANAGEMENTExtending DatastoreIncreasing Virtual Disk – WindowsIncreasing Virtual Disk Linux OSWorking with RDM DiskAttaching RDM Disk to a VMInflating Thin Provision DiskCreate Share Disk for VMs with Disk Clustering Feature :E.g.
