VMware vSAN: Deploy and Manage

De VMware vSAN: Deploy and Manage training richt zich op het implementeren en beheren van vSAN 6.7 binnen een software-defined datacenter. Je leert hoe vSAN werkt, hoe je het configureert en integreert binnen de bestaande VMware-omgeving.

Onderwerpen die aan bod komen zijn onder andere:

• vSAN-architectuur, functies en use cases begrijpen
• Netwerkcomponenten configureren voor vSAN
• Een vSAN-cluster inrichten en uitbreiden
• Virtuele machines uitrollen op een vSAN-datastore
• Opslagbeleid opstellen en toepassen per virtuele machine
• vSAN-encryptie instellen en beheren
• Fault domains opzetten, inclusief nested en stretched clusters
• Gezondheid en prestaties van vSAN monitoren via de Health & Performance Services
• Resynchronisatieprocessen controleren en beheren
• Interoperabiliteit met andere vSphere-functionaliteiten begrijpen
• Gebruik maken van iSCSI met vSAN

Deze training is ideaal voor storage- en virtualisatiebeheerders die software-defined storage willen inzetten met VMware vSAN.

De leerstof is in het Engels, maar de training wordt gegeven door een Nederlandstalige docent.
