• Explain the key features and use cases for vSAN
• Detail the underlying vSAN architecture and components
• Describe the different vSAN deployment options
• Detail vSAN cluster requirements and considerations
• Apply recommended vSAN design considerations and capacity sizing practices
• Explain the influence of vSAN objects and components on the initial cluster plan
• Determine and plan for storage consumption by data growth and failure tolerance
• Design vSAN hosts for operational needs
• Explain Maintenance Mode use and its impacts on vSAN
• Apply best practices for vSAN network configurations
• Manually configure a vSAN cluster using VMware vSphere® Client™ Explain and configure vSAN fault domains
• Understand and apply vSAN storage policies

My instructor was great being able to put scenarios into real world instances that related to my specific situation.
I was made to feel welcome from the moment I arrived and the ability to sit as a group outside the classroom to discuss our situations and our goals was extremely valuable.
I learnt a lot and felt it was important that my goals by attending this course were met.
Great job Lumify Work team.
