VCP-DCV | vSphere Install, Configure, Manage (ICM)

The VMware vSphere: Install, Configure, Manage course is a comprehensive training program that provides in-depth knowledge and practical skills for deploying, configuring, and managing vSphere environments. Designed for IT professionals pursuing the VCP-DCV certification, this program combines expert-led instruction with hands-on labs that simulate real-world scenarios.

Participants gain expertise in deploying and managing ESXi hosts and vCenter Server, configuring networking and storage resources, and building and administering clusters with Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) and High Availability (HA). Advanced topics include migrations (vMotion & Storage vMotion), snapshots, Fault Tolerance, and lifecycle management for both hosts and virtual machines.

By the end of the training, attendees will be able to design, install, and manage complete vSphere environments, optimize the performance of virtualized data centers, and apply best practices for enterprise-level infrastructure management. The course not only prepares participants for the official VCP-DCV certification, but also equips them with the hands-on experience required for professional growth in the fields of virtualization and cloud computing.
