Do you want to get started on learning VMware ?
Don’t know where to start ?
If so, you should read this book !
While there is training available, you can do quite a bit on your own at little to no cost. This book serves as a blueprint to learning VMware. It leverages the books I have previously written in the series VMware - A Guide for New Admins.
Here is some of what you will see in the book
- Getting Started With VMware
- Selecting a Server Platform
- Selecting a Storage System
- Backup to tape or disk ?
- Learning VMware
- Learning the CLI
- Doing An Upgrade
The primary goal of this book is to help begin the process of learning VMWare and starting to build your own home lab to further the learning process. The tasks you will learn here are primarily targeted at small to medium size installations. The skills learned for these size of installations can be applied to enterprise installations.
Note: This was updated on 9/8/16 to reflect the release of the 5th book of the series VMware - A Guide for New Admins - Backups & Tools.
