Duration: 5 days
Delivery Mode: Instructor-led (Physical Class)
HRDC Claimable: Yes

A mid-sized enterprise faced prolonged downtime due to misconfigured HA settings during a planned upgrade. After completing structured vSphere training, their IT team redesigned their cluster deployment — resulting in 99.9% uptime and seamless failover.

In 2023, a Malaysian data center experienced significant VM disruption due to poorly managed vSphere host updates.

Outcome:

After formal vSphere training, the team implemented vSphere Lifecycle Manager
They now maintain consistent image compliance and automate host upgrades
Downtime incidents dropped by 70% over 6 months

Learn how to install and configure VMware ESXi and vCenter

Build resilient networks, datastores, and HA clusters

Master vSphere tools for lifecycle, migration, and performance

Virtualization Missteps Cost Time, Resources, and Reliability

Without the right training, misconfigured hosts and VMs become your biggest risk — not your asset.

Problem: Incorrect ESXi deployment results in unstable environments

Solution: Learn correct setup procedures and best practices directly from VMware curriculum

Problem: Network and storage misconfigurations create downtime risks

Solution: Gain hands-on skills to set up distributed switches and VMFS/NFS/iSCSI datastores

Problem: Teams don’t fully leverage HA, DRS, or VM migration tools

Solution: Configure and manage clusters, snapshots, vMotion, and fault tolerance like a pro

Problem: Manual updates across multiple hosts cause inconsistency

Solution: Use vSphere Lifecycle Manager for image-based upgrades and compliance
