This three-day course is designed primarily for information technology (IT) professionals who have some experience with Windows Server. It is designed for professionals who will be responsible for managing components such as storage and networking with high availability and disaster recovery technologies such as live migration, storage migration, and Hyper-V Replica. In addition, it provides in-depth coverage of Failover Clustering, including a detailed implementation of failover clustering of Hyper-V in Windows Server 2022 using Scale-Out File Server. This course focuses on configuration using the new Windows Admin Centre, in addition to Windows PowerShell.
Before attending this course, students must have:
Additionally, students would benefit from having some previous experience of Windows PowerShell.
This course is intended for IT professionals who have some experiencing working with Windows Server, are involved in storage and high availability management and provisioning, and who want to acquire knowledge and training on the latest technologies. This course will help them update their knowledge and skills related to Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019 and Windows Server 2022.
Candidates suitable for this course would be:
After completing this course, students will have an understanding of the new Windows Server 2022 features include enhancements in the following areas:
Module 1 – High Availability
Describes the high availability and disaster recovery, how to plan for and how to implement high availability in both physical and virtual environments including the deployment and configuration of Hyper-V Replica.
Module 2 – Network Load Balancing
Describes NLB and how this technology works. This module also covers the situations for which NLB is appropriate, how to configure and manage NLB clusters, how to perform maintenance tasks on NLB clusters.
Module 3 – Failover Clustering
Describes how to plan Failover Clustering implementation and how to create and configure new failover clusters. Additionally, this module describes how to configure roles, services and storage for high availability with a failover cluster. Students will learn about configuring, managing, maintaining, and troubleshooting failover clusters, in addition to implementing site high availability with multisite failover clustering.
Module 4 – Failover Clustering with Hyper-V
Describes how to implement Failover Clustering in a Hyper-V scenario to achieve high availability for a virtual environment. This module also describes how to deploy and configure a Scale-Out File Server for high availability network shares to support virtual machines and applications.
Module 5 – Data Replication Services
Describes Distributed File System (DFS) and how this technology works. This module also covers the situations for which DFS is appropriate, how to configure and manage DFS. This module also introduces Storage Replica and provides an understanding of replication types and supported deployments of the technology.
Module 6 – Managing High Availability
Describes how to manage and troubleshoot a Failover Cluster including cluster-network heartbeats and Cluster-Aware Updating and also describes issues associated with Cluster Name Objects, no quorum and monitoring performance of a failover cluster.
