0 STUDENTS ENROLLED

    Course Duration: 4 days

    Overview
    Desktop virtualization promises to be the next great wave in IT’s ongoing quest to provide better service, higher availability, improved security, increased standardization and a more robust computing environment while lowering deployment, administration and infrastructure costs.

    Desktop Virtualization with VMware View 5.1 is a 4-day intense introduction to desktop virtualization using VMware’s View 5.1 product suite including VMware View Composer, VMware View Manager and VMware ThinApp.

    Successful VMware View implementations depend on the effective deployment and use of Active Directory, SQL Server, VMware vSphere, Windows desktop OS’, networking infrastructure, SAN storage and NFS datastores. Our class is unique in that students build all of these components in class, thereby ensuring they can successfully deploy View in their own office.

    By the end of the class, attendees will have learned the benefits, mechanics and best practices of desktop virtualization. Attendees will be able to design, implement, deploy, configure, monitor, manage, troubleshoot and secure a robust virtual desktop environment.

    Objectives
    At the end of the course, attendees will be able to:

    • Explain the many significant benefits of desktop virtualization
    • Install and configure VMware View according to best practices
    • Create, administer and manage desktop pools
    • Deploy traditional and linked-clone virtual desktops
    • Build and run local mode virtual desktops
    • Create secure desktop connections through untrusted public networks
    • Deploy virtual applications using VMware ThinApp

    Who Should Attend?
    This class is suitable for:

    • System architects who need to understand and design virtual desktop infrastructure
    • Senior administrators responsible for technical design and lead the implementation of virtual desktop projects
    • Security specialists responsible for monitor, managing, securing and administering access to remote desktops
    • Operators responsible for day-to-day operation of virtual desktops
    • VMware customers and prospects who want to learn how to extract the maximum benefit from their investment in virtual desktops
    • Managers who need an unbiased understanding of virtual desktops before committing their organization to a virtual desktop deployment

    Prerequisites
    Success in VMware’s View virtual desktop virtualization suite is dependent on familiarity with VMware’s server virtualization products as well as familiarity with common tools and technology found in most IT departments.

    Because of our Do-It-Yourself approach to View training, you do not need to be expert in all aspects of desktop and VMware installation and administration. However, some familiarity with the following topics will help:

    • Installing, configuring and administering ESXi 5.0 and vCenter 5.0
    • Building virtual machines from scratch and also from clones and templates
    • Understanding and using VM Spec files that assist in rapid VM deployment
    • Working with shared storage resources including SAN LUNs and NAS shares
