Advanced vSphere 8.x Features & Virtualization Management

Coursera · Advanced ·🔍 RAG & Vector Search ·1mo ago
Master advanced virtual machine operations, workload migrations, performance tuning, and cluster management in VMware vSphere 8.x—skills essential for modern virtualization professionals. Through hands-on labs and real-world use cases, you'll gain the practical experience needed to manage enterprise-scale environments with precision and confidence. Start by provisioning VMs using templates, cloning, customization specs, and content libraries to streamline large-scale deployments. You’ll also install VMware Tools, dynamically modify CPU and memory allocations, and manage VM lifecycle operations including clean decommissioning. Next, explore vMotion and Storage vMotion to migrate running VMs without downtime. Dive into snapshot usage, consolidation, and impact analysis, along with advanced CPU/memory resource optimization. The final module takes you deep into vSphere clustering—configure DRS and HA, apply Fault Tolerance, and tune workloads using resource pools and performance monitoring. By the end of this course, you will be able to: -Provision and manage VMs using templates and content libraries -Perform vMotion and Storage vMotion with EVC compatibility -Set up DRS, HA, FT, and optimize resources using pools and metrics -Apply snapshot and performance tuning strategies in real scenarios This course is ideal for system administrators, virtualization engineers, and IT professionals preparing for the Vmware data center virtualisation. Whether you're aiming for exam success or production-readiness, this course helps you confidently achieve both.
