Virtualization--the ability for a single system to act as multiple systems--is becoming a key technology in the data center. Virtualization permits more efficient allocation of hardware resources, keeping costs in control while maintaining the security that comes with placing key applications in separate computer silos.
The RH184 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Virtualization course teaches system administrators how to deploy virtualized versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, thus taking greater advantage of hardware and other resources.
Skills Gained
Goal:
A Red Hat Enterprise Linux system administrator who can install, configure, and manage virtual hosts on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Who Can Benefit
Linux system administrators who understand how to install and configure a Red Hat Enterprise Linux system and who wish to learn to install, configure, and manage Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 in a virtualized environment.
