Master installing, configuring, and managing VMware Workstation Pro to run multiple operating systems on a single PC, create and clone virtual machines, use snapshots, and manage virtual networks.
Understand virtualization by contrasting traditional data centers with hypervisor-managed virtual machines. Learn host and guest operating systems, and the main virtualization types, plus benefits like rapid deployment and easy backups.
Understand the system requirements for VMware Workstation Pro, including 64-bit x86 CPUs, 1.3 GHz, and minimum 2 GB RAM, plus supported host and guest operating systems.
Learn to configure custom virtual adapters in VMWare Workstation Pro to create segmented lab networks with internal and external VMnets and firewall VMs to route traffic.
Install Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.5 in VMware Workstation by creating a custom virtual machine, selecting an iso, configuring dhcp networking, and logging in to the console.
Explore the open virtualization format OVF and its virtual appliance OVA, learn how preconfigured virtual machines with descriptor, manifest, and VMD files are packaged and imported into VMware Workstation.
Configure multiple bridge interfaces in VMware Workstation Pro to assign two separate ISP connections to virtual machines by bridging VM nets to Ethernet and wireless adapters.
Clone a Windows Server 2016 virtual machine in VMware Workstation Pro, cover current state vs snapshot cloning, and explain full vs link clones with sysprep to reset SID.
If a VMware Workstation Pro virtual machine's location changes, recover it by opening the VM's configuration file (.vmx) from the new folder and re-adding it to the library.
With VMware Workstation Pro, you can run multiple operating systems simultaneously on the same PC, create powerful virtual machines to run the most demanding applications, and create restricted virtual machines that can expire. VMware Workstation Pro Lets You Run Multiple Operating Systems as Virtual Machines (including Windows VMs) on a Single Windows or Linux PC.
VMware Workstation takes desktop virtualization to the next level by giving users unmatched operating system support, rich user experience, and incredible performance.
VMware Workstation Highlights:
Run Multiple OSs on a Single PC : The app allows you to run multiple operating systems at once on the same Windows or Linux PC. Create real Linux and Windows VMs and another desktop, server, and tablet environments
Connect to VMware vSphere: Securely connect with vSphere, ESXi, or other Workstation servers to launch, control, and manage both virtual machines (VMs) and physical hosts
Secure and Isolate Environment : Run a secure second desktop with different privacy settings, tools, and networking configurations, or use forensic tools to investigate OS vulnerabilities.
Clones for Rapid Duplication: Save time and effort and ensure an exact duplicate when repeatedly creating the same VM setup.
Create Snapshots : Create a rollback point to revert to on the fly, which is perfect for testing unknown software or creating customer demos
Powerful Virtual Networking : Create complex IPv4 or IPv6 virtual networks for VMs, or integrate with third-party software to design full data center topologies using real-world routing software and tools.
