Overview:
This two-day, hands-on training course provides you with the knowledge, skills, and tools to plan and deploy a VMware vSAN™ cluster. In this course, you are taught the many considerations that the vSAN configuration has on the initial planning of the vSAN datastore. You also manually configure a vSAN cluster.
 

Objectives:

By the end of the course, you should be able to meet the following objectives:
•  Explain the key features and use cases for vSAN
•  Detail the underlying vSAN architecture and components
•  Describe the different vSAN deployment options
•  Detail vSAN cluster requirements and considerations
•  Apply recommended vSAN design considerations and capacity sizing practices
•  Explain the influence of vSAN objects and components on the initial cluster plan
•  Determine and plan for storage consumption by data growth and failure tolerance
•  Design vSAN hosts for operational needs
•  Explain Maintenance Mode use and its impacts on vSAN
•  Apply best practices for vSAN network configurations
•  Manually configure a vSAN cluster using VMware vSphere® Client™
•  Explain and configure vSAN fault domains
•  Understand and apply vSAN storage policies
•  Define encryption in the vSAN cluster
•  Describe the architecture and use cases for stretched clusters
•  Configure a stretched cluster
•  Understand the steps involved in creating the vSAN iSCSI target services

Intended Audience:

Experienced VMware vSphere® administrators

Prerequisites:

You should have the following understanding or knowledge:
•  Understanding of concepts presented in the VMware vSphere: Install, Configure, Manage course
•  Knowledge of basic storage concepts
•  Experience using vSphere Client to perform administrative tasks on vSphere clusters
