This course covers content from four courses that VMware offers. It’s all here and combined into one class that covers installing, supporting, and troubleshooting a VMware Enterprise Environment. This customized courseware covers content from VMware's courses:
- VMware I3 - What's New

What the students have access to:
Each student will setup their own ESX Server, License Server, VirtualCenter Server, and use a variety of tools to support the VMware Enterprise. This course offers students to build, support, and troubleshoot their own server. Each student has a physical ESX server sitting right next to them in class. This is not virtual training and we do not use Citrix to connect to remote servers. Our students will work directly with the equipment and software during the hands-on portion of the training.We also take a look at 3rd Party tools to help assist in deployment and management of a VMware solution.

Why take this course from New Horizons?
- Our course is taught by a nationally recognized instructor with almost 15 years of related real world IT experience. When not teaching, he is consulting with many of the largest IT departments in the United States, deploying the same solutions covered in the class.
- Students will configure their own ESX Server physically located in the classroom. Other VMware classes offer remote servers only.
- Students will be exposed to independent, third party solutions. Other VMware classes do not cover or compare third party solutions.
- Students will be trained on a complete ESX solution where they install, configure, and troubleshoot ESX Server, Virtual Center, VMware Consulated Backup, Converter 3.0, and more. Other VMWare classes are more narrow in focus and do not cover the breadth of material we do.
- This course is meant to be a complete end-to-end training solution for administrators, engineers, and IT Support personnel.
Enrollment in this course is limited to a maximum of 12 students. If you would like more information regarding this course or would like to enroll, please contact us today.
