Track Curriculum

Deep Inspection of Virtual Infrastructure Telemetry

This sprint is designed to take engineers from basic tool usage to authoritative data auditors. Students work inside live virtual laboratories mimicking large multi-host enterprise clusters to master every diagnostic tab.

Sprint 1: Connection Architecture & Read-Only Role Scoping

Securing vCenter connectivity with least-privilege service accounts, managing port 443 firewall traversal, and preventing API throttle limits.

Sprint 2: The Core Compute & Memory Ecosystem (vInfo, vCPU, vMemory)

Extracting virtual machine state, guest operating systems, VMware Tools status, CPU reservation conflicts, and memory ballooning indicators.

Sprint 3: Datastore Space, Orphaned VMDKs & Multipathing (vDisk, vDatastore)

Calculating uncommitted storage exposure, detecting dormant VMDK files, and validating storage fabric multipathing policies.

Sprint 4: Snapshot Hygiene & vHealth Error Resolution (vSnapshot, vHealth)

Locating stale snapshots, assessing snapshot chain fragmentation, and resolving critical vHealth diagnostic flags.

Sprint 5: Unattended Batch CLI Automation

Building recurring unattended export pipelines via CLI parameters, Windows DPAPI credential protection, and automated multi-tab Excel distribution.
