In this recorded live webinar tutorial, CBT Nuggets trainer Keith Barker covers how to build a vSphere 6.5 home lab. Get your hands dirty with the latest product from a virtualization industry leader. Learn vSphere 6.5 insights, features and tips to help you train for success.

Any time you need to simulate a production environment or try something new, having a hands-on lab that’s right there and ready to go is a fantastic tool in addition to hands-on labs provided in CBT’s existing courses.

If you were considering building a lab for home use and you wanted to assemble every piece of hardware that would be needed, you’d end up with at least five computers running.

You’d need a computer representing your ESXi-1 device, another physical device for the host ESXi-2. Active Directory Windows server would need to be a computer all its own, as would the vCSA server’s home. Last, the iSCSI or NSFS storage would reside on a device too.

Virtualization is a much more achievable solution. To say nothing of the power or heat that set-up would produce, you’d be looking at significant cost.

Follow along to see how Keith would virtualize the entire lab in VMware Workstation.
