Course Overview
Advanced skills for establishing and managing a highly available and scalable virtual infrastructure are taught during this five-day course. You configure and optimise the VMware vSphere 8 capabilities that lay the groundwork for a truly scalable infrastructure through a mix of lectures and hands-on experiments. You also go over the situations and areas where these characteristics have the biggest impact. Attend this session to gain a deeper understanding of vSphere and see how its sophisticated controls and capabilities may help your business.

FAQs
A: Generally, VMware provides three different types of server software
- VMware ESX Server
- VMware ESXi Server
- VMware Server
A: Different components which are used in VMware are listed below:-
- It generally consists of the lowest layer, which acts as an ESX server host.
- It also uses the virtual center server, which keeps track of all the VM-associated images and manages them from one point.
- VMware infrastructure client enables the client to communicate with the user's applications running on VMware.
- Web-browser is are generally used to access virtual machines.
- The license server is used to prepare a server that licenses the applications.
- Database servers are availed to maintain a database.
A: VMware High Availability has a mechanism to find a host isolated from the rest of the hosts in the cluster. In other words, it generally uses a heartbeat to communicate with another host in the group. When the host loses its ability to connect with others in a cluster through heartbeat, the host will be considered a Host Isolation.
A: The communication between two ESXi hosts is known as Fault logging when FT is configured between them.
