This course focuses on installing, setting, and maintaining VMware vSphere® 7, which includes VMware ESXiTM 7 and VMware vCenter Server® 7. This course will enable you to manage a vSphere architecture for any size enterprise. This course serves as the basis for the majority of other VMware innovations used in the software-defined data centre. You will be able to explain what a software-defined data centre is (SDDC). You will describe the vSphere elements and how they fit within the infrastructure. You will be able to explain the advantages and features of VMware Skyline. You can install and set up ESXi hosts and also install and configure the VMware vCenter® Server appliance. You will maintain the vCenter Server inventory and configuration using VMware vSphere® ClientTM. You will be able to use vSphere regular switches to build virtual networks. You can demonstrate the storage systems that vSphere supports. You will set up virtual storage with iSCSI and NFS storage.
