Course Overview

In this course participants gain the skills needed to virtualize their organization’s infrastructure with Hyper-V or System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM). Through extensive hands-on exercises participants learn how to deploy and configure a highly available virtual infrastructure with Microsoft Windows Server 2012 virtualization tools.In this course participants gain the skills needed to virtualize their organization’s infrastructure with Hyper-V or System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM). Through extensive hands-on exercises participants learn how to deploy and configure a highly available virtual infrastructure with Microsoft Windows Server 2012 virtualization tools.

At the end of the training, participants will be able to:

  1. Virtualize enterprise workloads with Windows Server Hyper-V
  2. Create Hyper-V Vms, optimized disks and virtual networks
  3. Maintain uptime with live migrations, clustering and other high-availability solutions
  4. Implement a private cloud using SCVMM
  5. Optimize virtual infrastructure performance and security

Pre-requisite

  1. Experience with Windows system administration and networking knowledge is assumed.

Duration

2 days
