You Will Learn How To
- Implement Hyper-V to consolidate servers for optimized resource utilization and availability
- Effectively plan and deploy virtual machines and virtual networks
- Roll out highly available services and applications through clustering and quick migrations
- Centralize management of virtual machines with System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM)
- Optimize, monitor and troubleshoot virtual machines with built-in tools and add-on solutions
- Secure Hyper-V servers through firewalls and reduced attack surfaces
Course Benefits Virtualization is a powerful enterprise technology that provides simplified administration, reduced total cost of ownership (TCO) and environmental benefits to the organization. When properly implemented, Windows Server 2008 Hyper-V can be used to consolidate servers and ensure high availability. In this course, you gain the practical skills to deploy, manage and secure virtual machines built on Hyper-V technology.
Who Should Attend Server and network administrators, infrastructure architects and anyone responsible for implementing or managing virtualization solutions based on Hyper-V. Experience with Windows Server administration is required.
