Almost 10 hours of video designed to help you prepare to pass the VMware Professional vSphere 7.x exam, which is a key requirement for earning the VCP-DCV certification. This course is also advantageous to those who want to learn how to implement, configure, and manage a vSphere environment or those preparing to take another Data Center Virtualization qualifying exam.

Overview

Earning the VCP-DCV certification demonstrates that you can implement, configure, manage, and support virtual infrastructure and clouds built on VMware vSphere 7. It demonstrates that you understand the components, features, and use cases for vSphere 7. The major step for earning VCP-DCV is to pass the Professional vSphere 7 exam. This course is designed to help you achieve exam success! It provides details on the exam objectives as stated in the exam blueprint, as well as technical detail, explanations, and real-world examples. At the end of each lesson is an end-of-lesson quiz to test your understanding of the concepts discussed.

Throughout this course, you will gain a deeper understanding of VMware vSphere 7 and how to use it to implement virtual compute infrastructure, virtual storage infrastructure, and virtual network infrastructure. You learn how to optimize host clusters and provide high availability for VMs to protect against hardware, storage, and network infrastructure issues. You learn how to monitor virtual machines and vSphere components and how to perform day-to-day operations and maintenance.

At the end of the course, you will not only be able to engage in knowledgeable discussions involving vSphere 7 but also will be well on your way to passing the Professional vSphere 7.x exam and be that much closer to VCP-DCV certification.
