Description
The VMware Ultimate Bootcamp vSphere 5.5 is an intensive course that combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on labs to enable the students to install, configure, manage, and troubleshoot VMware vSphere 5.5, including VMware ESXi 5.5 and VMware vCenter Server 5.5.
** This course is in 2 parts. Please purchase Part 1, not this course, and you will get free access to Part 2. The total number of lectures for this course is over Udemy's limit for a single course, which is why we had to break it into 2 courses.
The VMware Ultimate Bootcamp vSphere 5.5 course covers the fundamental tools and techniques required to plan, install and administer a VMware environment including disaster recovery and backup. It also teaches the students on creating, configuring and securing virtual machines. The students will get a basic understanding of licensing and different components of the VMware vSphere suite of applications. The course will be helpful in preparing for the Certified Virtualization Expert (CVE) exam from VMware.
Who this course is for:
- The ideal candidates for this exam are the IT professionals working in a virtualized infrastructure environment.
