Description :

 

 

 

This course prepares learners to deploy and manage XenServer Enterprise Edition 5.0 and XenCenter. Through hands-on labs, learners will gain experience in installing and configuring a virtualization server and connecting to the server with XenCenter; creating virtual machines and managing virtual machine life-cycle operations; and creating a XenServer resource pool and connecting to remote storage.

In addition, learners will explore advanced XenServer capabilities such as XenMotion and automatic virtual machine placement.

Objectives :

 

 

 

Upon successful completion of this course, learners are able to:

 

• Describe the difference between Xen hypervisor and other virtualization methods

 

 

• Describe the difference between Xen open source project and XenServer commercial products

 

 

• Install XenServer Enterprise Edition 5.0 and configure CPU, network and storage resources

 

 

• Install XenCenter

 

 

• Create virtual machines and templates

 

 

• Identify and explain the uses for XenConvert

 

 

• Manage virtual machine resources and life cycle operations

 

 

• Perform searches to sort searching and grouping in XenCenter and view VM performance statistics

 

 

• Configure local and remote storage

 

 

• Configure resource pools and move virtual machines from one server to another

 

 

• Identify the requirements for high availability and disaster recovery

 

 

• Identify the purpose and functionality of the xe CLI and perform basic commands
