We provide virtual course about DO316: Managing Virtual Machines with Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization in english. This course teaches the essential skills required to create and manage virtual machines (VM) on OpenShift using the Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization operator.
Course goals:
By attending this training you will learn to deploy and manage virtualized workloads on OpenShift and manage these workloads using both traditional ways, such as SSH and Ansible, and also modern DevOps practices, such as GitOps and CI/CD.
This course provides:
• Skills required to create, access, and manage VMs on OpenShift clusters
• Skills required to control usage and access of cpu, memory, storage, and networking resources from VMs using the same Kubernetes features that would also control usage and access to these resources for containers.
• Sample architectures to manage High Availability (HA) of VMs using standard Kubernetes features and extensions from OpenShift Virtualization.
• Strategies to connect VMs on OpenShift to data center services outside of their OpenShift cluster, such as storage and databases.
• Strategies to migrate VMs from compatible hypervisors to OpenShift Virtualization by using the Migration Toolkit for Virtualization operator.
Course outline:
Module 1 - Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization:
• Distinguish Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization from container technologies and from traditional virtual machine technologies. Describe the features and use cases of OpenShift Virtualization. Deploy the OpenShift Virtualization operator in an existing Red Hat OpenShift environment.
Module 2 - Running and Accessing Virtual Machines:
• Create, manage, inspect, and monitor virtual machines in Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization
Module 3 - Configuring Kubernetes Networking for Virtual Machines:
• Configure standard Kubernetes network objects and external access for VMs and virtual machine-backed applications
Module 4 - Connecting Virtual Machines to External Networks:
• Configure node networking to connect virtual machines and nodes to networks outside of the cluster by using Multus CNI plug-ins and the NMState operator.
Module 5 - Configuring Storage for Virtual Machines:
• Manage storage and disks for virtual machines in Red Hat OpenShift by using Kubernetes
Module 6 - Create and Restore Backups of Virtual Machines:
• Create virtual machine snapshots and back up virtual machine components individually and by using the OpenShift APIs for Data Protection (OADP) operator.
Module 7 - Replicating Virtual Machines by Using Instance Types, Templates, and Clones:
• Create and manage clones, templates, and instance types to provision virtual machines
Module 8 - Advanced Virtual Machine Management:
• Import, control the placement of, monitor the health of, and live migrate virtual machines
Module 9 - Configuring Kubernetes High Availability for Virtual Machines:
• Implement high availability virtual machines that are resilient to failures, planned maintenance, and cluster upgrades by configuring Kubernetes resources.
Target audience:
This course is aimed at the following audiences:
• Virtual Machine Administrators who want to virtualize workloads from traditional Hypervisors to OpenShift Virtualization.
• Platform Engineers, Cloud Administrators, and System Administrators who want to support virtualized workloads, either independently from or in the same OpenShift cluster as containerized workloads.
Prerequisites:
• This course does not require previous knowledge of containers and Kubernetes
• It is recommended but not required to have knowledge equal to the course DO180: Red Hat OpenShift I: Containers & Kubernetes.
Language:
• English course material, english speaking instructor
Certification:
This course will help you prepare for exam EX316: Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Virtualization. By passing this exam, you become a Red Hat Certified Specialist in OpenShift Virtualization that also counts towards earning a Red Hat Certified Architect (RHCA®).
