This practical three-day “hands-on” course is intended for students wishing to qualify with CompTIA Server+ Certification. It specifically prepares for the new exam content that launched in 2005 (exam code SK0-002).
Server+ Certification is internationally recognized by many corporations. Indeed, CompTIA Server+ Certification is a prerequisite qualification for employment (and is endorsed) by many leading computer manufacturers and vendors on a global basis. This course will teach students advanced-level technical competency of server issues and technology, including installation, configuration, upgrading, maintenance, environment, troubleshooting and disaster recovery.
Net Work Training Course Objectives
On course completion, students will be able to:
- Identify the features of server hardware and software.
- Plan for the installation and upgrade of servers.
- Know the features of server-level hardware (such as multiprocessing, RAID, and SCSI).
- Install and upgrade server hardware.
- Know basic network concepts and install network devices.
- Install and upgrade server OS, tools, and applications software on Windows, NetWare, and Linux.
