red hat enterprise virtualization

By attending Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization workshop, Participants will learn:

  • RHEV with KVM overview
  • Advanced RHEV with KVM
  • Overview of RHEV platform
  • Creating and configuring data centers, host clusters and RHEV-M
  • Installing and upgrading RHEV-H
  • Configure data, ISO, and export storage domains using NFS and iSCSI
  • Create and manage virtual servers and virtual desktops
  • Create and manage snapshots and templates
  • Create and manage users and desktop pools
  • Exporting/importing virtual machines

In Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization training course, Participants will explore the virtualization features of Red Hat Enterprise Linux with the advanced Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV) platform. They will acquire the skills and knowledge to deploy and centrally manage virtual servers and virtual desktops in the enterprise. Upon completion of this course, they will have the skills and knowledge to effectively create, deploy, manage, and migrate Linux and Microsoft Windows virtual machines hosted on either RHEV Hypervisor or Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers dedicated nodes using RHEV Manager.

  • RHCT or RHCSA certification or equivalent experience with Linux
  • System administration experience on Microsoft Windows is beneficial, but not necessary

Experienced Linux system administrators who are responsible for managing enterprise servers and who are interested in learning how to manage large numbers of servers or virtual machines using RHEV.
