CBT NUGGETS-VMware Infrastructure 3 VCP Certification

Covers VMware Workstation 6, ESX Server 3.0, and Virtual Infrastructure 3 for Exam Prep and On The Job Skills
Includes 20 Videos

As you watch this series you’ll gain real-world skills for using VMware virtualization technologies. Plus the content maps to exam objectives to help you as you prepare for the VCP certification exam.

Discover a new world of possibility with VMware Workstation

Virtualization opens up many new possibilities for IT pros. With VMware Workstation you can run multiple virtual computers on a single computer. Each can have its own unique operating system and hardware profile.

This lets you try out Linux without building a new computer. Test new client-server environments before deploying them. Run test environments without fear of crashing your main OS. And that’s just the beginning.

Become a virtualization pro with ESX Server and VMware Infrastructure 3

With ESX Server and VMware Infrastructure 3, you’ll have even more power and flexibility at your fingertips.

Here’s just a taste. Imagine your ideal infrastructure, including the number of servers and their functions — even the ideal network traffic flow. You can design that in VMware Server. Then give it as much hardware horsepower as your budget allows. The more hardware you give it, the better performance you’ll get. Plus it’s expandable later when you need more performance.

You could even run an entire virtual network or IT datacenter that exists completely within VMware. This maximizes your ability to use hardware to the full capacity, so no hardware spend is wasted.

Step by step on the job skills plus exam prep

CBT Nuggets instructor Greg Shields walks you through VMware Workstation, ESX Server, and VMware Infrastructure 3. He shows you what you need to know to deploy and manage these on the job. He even throws in some “gotcha’s” from his own experience where things work differently than you’d expect, or where you need to pay extra attention.

This series stands alone as an on-the-job reference for using VMware — but that’s just the beginning.

If you’d like to become a VMware Certified Professional (VCP), this series can help you prepare for the exam. We mapped the content to exam objectives so what you learn in the videos is what you’ll see on the test.

To get certified, you’ll also have to attend a course hosted by VMware — this series supplements that course by helping you become familiar with VMware before taking the course. Plus after you’ve taken the course, you’ll have this series you can use to brush up on your skills and knowledge before taking the certification exam.

The VMware Infrastructure 3 VCP Certification Package contains:

- Introduction to Virtualization and VMware (free video!)
- Using VMware Workstation
- Deploying, Manipulating, and Converting Virtual Machines
- Cloning and Teaming
- VMware Virtual Infrastructure Components and Installing ESX
- Networking & Virtual Switches
- Connecting to Fibre Channel Storage
- Connecting to iSCSI Storage
- Connecting to NFS Storage
- Installing & Licensing VirtualCenter
- The VirtualCenter Interface
- Deploying Virtual Machines
- VMotion & Cold Migrations
- Resource and Performance Management
- Clusters, Resource Pools, DRS, & HA
- Administering User Permissions
- Administering Web Access
- Virtual Machine Backup, Restore, and Disaster Recovery
- Service Console and Service Console Commands
- Troubleshooting, Logs, Review, & Wrap-Up

CBT-Cisco CCVP - Exam-Pack: 642-436 CVOICE 6.0

Cisco Voice over IP
Includes 33 Videos

This training provides the core knowledge of Voice over IP (VoIP) required for implementing and supporting data and voice integration solutions at the network level. It helps you grasp the VoIP vision, and to answer three major questions most companies have about VoIP solutions:

* Why are so many companies moving to VoIP?
* What are the benefits of using VoIP?
* Is VoIP right for our company?

After helping you answer these questions, the CVOICE videos get into the nitty-gritty of VoIP implementation. They show you how to:

* assign rules to nearly everything using Transformation Rules
* move an existing PBX or Key System based network to the newer VoIP technology without getting rid of all your old equipment, so you can maximize the cost efficiency of your VoIP implementation
* deploy a worldwide VoIP infrastructure, even using lower-end equipment.
* configure your Cisco router to continually monitor the WAN line quality and dynamically change connections as necessary.
* set up the Dial Plan that’s best for your organization
* understand and configure Gatekeeper
* use VoIP to handle fax and modem

“CVOICE [Exam-Pack: 642-436 from CBT Nuggets] not only prepares you for the Cisco exam, but also has multiple practical VoIP deployment videos showing exactly how an administrator would set this up in the real world,” explained instructor Jeremy Cioara.

The videos cover all objectives for the Cisco CVOICE exam 642-436, which is required for CCVP certification. A thorough understanding of Cisco networking such as CCNA or equivalent knowledge is recommended before viewing these videos. The training contains 33 videos providing more than 16 hours of instruction.

As a PHP developer, you have some great tools for developing web applications. Ruby on Rails is another key tool to add to your web development toolbox. Rails is a high-level web development framework that emphasizes high productivity and clean code. However, the Ruby language and Rails framework take a different approach from the way many PHP developers write applications.

Ruby lies at the foundation of Rails, and we’ll teach you the Ruby language from the beginning by building on your existing foundation of PHP. We’ll explore Ruby through parallel code examples that illustrate the differences between the languages, and help you understand the Ruby idioms and how they differ from popular PHP code and style.

You’ll then learn the Rails framework by iteratively building a complete application, starting from the home page through to a finished product. Along the way, you’ll build your skills as a Rails developer by learning the Rails fundamentals such as MVC structure, domain modeling, and testing.

In addition to serving as a guide to learning both Ruby and Rails from a PHP developer’s perspective, this book includes two extensive reference chapters. They map the most common PHP tasks to their equivalents in the Ruby and Rails world, giving you at-a-glance information that you’ll refer to often.
