VMware vSphere 7.0 Boot Camp Upgrade

5 additional lectures and labs that turn our VMware vSphere 7.0 with ESXi and vCenter into a full Boot Camp (5-day, 10hr/day) equivalent course

Course Summary

About This Course
Use this course add-on to upgrade our VMware vSphere 7.0 with ESXi and vCenter to a full Boot Camp course. VMware's official VMware vSphere Fast Track [v7.0] course is wildly expensive at over $6,200USD/seat. Save your money and get comparable training at a much more reasonable price.

This course adds up to 10+ additional hours of lectures and lab demos across five additional chapters. It also includes our full 164pg VMware vSPhere 7.0 Boot Camp Supplement guide (PDF) that includes all of the slides, slide notes and step-by-step labs you need to fully master this material.

In this course, you will learn concepts, mechanics, hands on skills and best practices so that you can effectively configure and use:

  1. Advanced Virtual Networking
    Security policies including Promiscuous Mode, Forged Transmits and MAC Address Changes
  2. Content Libraries
    Learn how to create and share Content Libraries to control, manage and share your VM Templates, Install Media (.iso) files, Scripts and other files
  3. Raw Device Maps
    Learn how to connect to and correctly configure VM to SAN LUN access to support enterprise applications, enable SAN based volume back up and replication and to implement Windows high service availability using VM-to-VM or VM-to-Physical-Peer Microsoft Fail Over Cluster configurations
  4. Continuous VM Availability with Fault Tolerance
    Need to deliver zero VM unplanned downtime for your critical applications and services? Use vSphere Fault Tolerance to hot replicate and protect critical VMs and instantly return to service after an ESXi host, storage network or SAN volume access failure
  5. Distributed Virtual Switches
    Distributed Virtual Switches (dvSwitches) provide many advantages over Standard vSwitches including configuration consistency, Port Shadowing, Private vLANs, Configuration Backup / Restore, Network I/O Control, Support for Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) and more . In this chapter and lab, I'll take you through the steps to create a new dvSwitch and uplink it to a common layer 2 network. We'll then learn how to migrate in bulk VMkernel NICs and VMs off of Standard vSwitches and onto dvSwitches

ESXLab - Your source for affordable VMware vSphere training.

Q: What do you do if you need to learn VMware vSphere introductory or advanced skills - but can't afford the $4,000+ needed to attend official VMware training?
A: Enroll in ESXLab's VMware vSphere training instead!

My is Larry Karnis and I have been teaching VMware vSphere since 2004, when I was invited by VMware to become one of their first contract instructors. I taught their Install, Configure, Manage and FastTrack courses for 5 years. In 2008, I founded ESXLab and dedicated it to providing practical, effective and objective VMware training for corporate and individual customers. I have led hundreds of training classes all around the world and have taught vSphere to literally thousands of people in my live instructor led events. And I have taught over 25,000 people through video-on-demand training!

This site is my official video-on-demand training site. This site offers my complete introductory and advanced vSphere training courses. These courses provide you with a learning experience comparable to what you would receive if you attended a crazy expensive 5-day event such as official VMware vSphere 7.0 Install, Configure, Manage  or VMware vSphere 7.0 Optimize and Scale courses. But my video-on-demand training sells for a small fraction of the cost of live training.

By offering self-paced Video-on-Demand (VoD) training, digital course eBooks, live remote access vSphere labs and online support, I can provide you with a self-paced vSphere learning experience that will match or exceed what you would get from an instructor led training class. My goal is to give you a better training experience - for much, much less.

How Will ESXLab vSphere Training Benefit Me?

I get lots feedback from people who tell me the benefits they have received from my courses. They use my training to:

  • Help prepare for VMware Certified Professional (VCP)  or VMware Certified Advanced Professional (VCAP) certification
  • Fill in knowledge gaps on software they already have and use
  • Learn about new features and capabilities of vSphere 6.7 or 6.5
  • Learn how to use vSphere Web Client and HTML 5 Client (because vSphere Client is obsolete)
  • Get the skills necessary to move into an entry level vSphere administrators job
  • Get the skills necessary to move up to intermediate and advanced level vSphere administrators job

Why Learn From Me?
I am an IT consultant / trainer with over 25 years of experience. I currently run an IT consulting and training company called ESXLab that specializes in VMware vSphere consulting and training. 

After graduating with Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Math in 1984, I worked for 10 years as a UNIX programmer and administrator. I switched to Linux in 1995 and started teaching Linux courses for Learning Tree, Global Knowledge and RedHat. At RedHat, I taught introductory and advanced Linux courses and administered the RedHat Certified Engineer exams. I even authored two books on Linux.

I've been working with VMware products since 2001. I earned my first VMware Certified Professional (VCP) designation on ESX 2.0 in 2004 (VCP #: 993). I have earned VCP in ESX 3, and in vSphere 4 and 5. I have been providing VMware consulting and training for more than 17  years. I have taught more than 25,000 people how to use vSphere in live instructor led training, online live training and video-on-demand training.

I worked for VMware as a VMware Certified Instructor (VCI) for five years (2004-2008). After leaving VMware, I launched my own VMware training business called ESXLab.  

I hold many industry certificates including VCP-Datacenter Virtualization on VMware Infrastructure 2 & 3 and vSphere 4 & 5 (ret.), VMware Certified Instructor (ret.), RedHat Certified Engineer (RHCE), RedHat Certified Instructor (RHCI) and RedHat Certified Examiner (RHCX) as well as certifications from the Linux Professional Institute, Hewlett Packard, Santa Cruz Operation and others. 

I hope to see you in one of my VMware classes... There's no risk as I make plenty content available for free preview - so check it out and see if my VMware vSphere training is for you.

Feel free to send me questions. My e-mail address is larry.karnis@esxlab.com. I usually respond within 1-2 days.

Thanks for your interest.
