VMware vSAN: Plan and Deploy [V7]

This two-day, hands-on training course provides you with the knowledge, skills, and tools to plan and deploy a VMware vSAN™ cluster. In this course, you are taught the many considerations that the end vSAN configuration has on the initial planning of the vSAN datastore. You also perform a fully manual configuration of a vSAN cluster.

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

• Understand vSAN Fundamentals: Architecture, components, deployment options, and use cases.

• Plan a vSAN Cluster: Assess hardware, networking, and capacity requirements; apply design principles and sizing best practices.

• Deploy a vSAN Cluster: Manually configure clusters, set up networking, define fault domains, and apply storage policies using the vSphere Client.

• Integrate with VMware Ecosystem: Use vSAN with vSphere HA and ensure compatibility with other VMware technologies.

• System and VMware Administrators – manage vSphere and virtual infrastructure

• Storage Administrators – focus on storage virtualization and shared storage

• Solution Architects – design and plan HCI and complex IT architectures

• Infrastructure/Cloud Engineers – build and support hyper-converged and cloud infrastructure

• vSphere administration experience (VMs, clusters, vCenter operations)

• Knowledge from vSphere: Install, Configure, Manage (architecture, VM management, vCenter basics)

• Basic storage concepts (RAID, SSD/HDD, storage networks)

• Hands-on vSphere Client experience with common administrative tasks
