VMware vSphere: Advanced Administration Workshop [V7]

Courses Overview

This five-day course provides hands-on training to equip students with a range of skills: from performing routine VMware vSphere® 7 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 are building and scaling their virtual infrastructure.

This course uses scenario-based lab exercises and does not provide guided step-by-step instructions. To complete the scenario-based lab exercises, you are required to analyse the task, research, and deduce the required solution. References and suggested documentation are provided.

By the end of the course, you should be able to meet the following objectives:

  • Enable cluster features and configure vSphere storage and networking.
  • Use host profiles to automate host configurations.
  • Use Cluster Quickstart to create a VMware vSAN™ enabled cluster.
  • Configure the VMware vCenter Server® identity provider.
  • Troubleshoot host connectivity and storage connectivity.
  • Perform lifecycle operations on vSphere components.
  • Implement security hardening guidelines to vSphere and virtual machines.

Approximately 90% of the class is application-focused and taught through labs. The course aligns fully with the VMware Certified Advanced Professional – Data Center Virtualization Deploy exam objectives.
