DCUCI eğitimi, Cisco Data Center ürünlerinin satış ve dizayn aşamasından sonra kurulum ve işletme kısmında devreye giren arkadaşların yararlanacakları teknik detayları barındırır. Bunun dışında Unified Computing ürün ailesinin içerisinde yer alan herbir bileşenin (6100 Serisi Interconnect'ler, B Serisi Blade Server'lar vs.) tek tek incelendiği, montaj aşaması dahil olmak üzere tüm kurulum ve yönetim işlemleri de detaylı bir şekilde ele alınmaktadır.

In this course, you will learn rack installation and how to provision server hardware, operating systems or hypervisors, and applications. Significant content is devoted to management, maintenance, and troubleshooting. You will review Cisco data center virtualization solutions and learn how to execute a virtualization solution based on a detailed implementation plan.

The course follows an actual implementation workflow providing hands-on practice by configuring the most recent Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) solutions, including Cisco UCS B-Series, Cisco UCS C-Series, and Cisco Nexus 1000V product families.

This newly updated course walks current and prospective data center administrators through Cisco's UCS B-Series and UCS C-Series components with a heavy focus on systems architecture, installation, and administration. Special attention is paid to the individual components of a complete solution and how to install, configure, and maintain a Cisco UCS installation in various types of environments. Hands-on configuration labs throughout the week will reinforce the information as you build a complete solution.
