David Davis and TrainSignal just released the latest vSphere training – vSphere Performance Monitoring Training.
This new vSphere Performance Monitoring training is the latest training for VMware vSphere. The course is oriented for towards the VCAP-DCA certification exam, but even if you don't want to pass the VMware VCAP-DCA certification you'll certainly want to find out which tweaks can help you solve memory or network performance issues. There are some real world case scenarios (look at the outline lesson 19 for example) and also many information on third party tools which you might want to discover in action on how to successfully monitor VMware vSphere infrastructure in your company.
There are some free tools showed in this training from vKernel, Veeam and Vmware too.. Just check the outline of the course and lessons 32 to lesson 39…
Mike Laverick from RTFM Education was the partner to review the course.
A quick quote from David's blog vmwarevideos.com :
I spent the last three months creating this course and did everything possible to make it the best single source for vSphere Performance knowledge. I was honored to have the course reviewed by the distinguished Mike Laverick of RTFM-ED.co.uk. Mike provided me valuable feedback throughout the course creation to help me make the course as complete as possible.
