Description
This module provides the student with core practical and theoretical skills and competencies in virtualisation. As part of this module the students will learn how to create, configure & manage a virtualised infrastructure.
Learning Outcomes
On completion of this module the learner will/should be able to;
1.
Analyse and understand the virtualisation architecture and the components that are part of a modern enterprise environment
2.
Install, configure and optomise a hypervisor architecture
3.
Implement a server virtualisation infrastructure
4.
Monitor and maintain a server virtualisation infrastructure
Teaching and Learning Strategies
Teaching and Learning will encompass inquiry based learning
Module Assessment Strategies
|
Assessment will be done by both MCQ based on the Microsoft 74-409 Server virtualisation with Windows Server Hyper-V and Systems Center and practical exams on Server Machines to test the students ability to implement and manage a Virtualisation Infrastructure |
Repeat Assessments
A repeat practical assessment will be provided
