Red Hat High Availability Clustering Self-paced Training

In the Red Hat High Availability Clustering (RH436) course, you will learn how to provide highly available network services to a mission-critical enterprise environment through the deployment and management of shared storage and server clusters. Created for senior Linux system administrators, this 4-day course strongly emphasizes lab-based activities.

You will set up a cluster of systems running the Pacemaker component of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux High-Availability Add-On, and deploy Linux-based services such as web servers and databases on that cluster. Cluster storage components from the Resilient Storage Add-On are also covered; installations and applications that require multiple cluster nodes can access the same storage simultaneously. This includes Logical Volume Manager (LVM) Shared Volume Groups, Red Hat Global File System 2 (GFS2), and Device-Mapper Multipath.

This course is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.3.

Please note: It may take up to 48 hours until the access to this e-learning is provided.

Senior Linux system administrators who use high-availability clustering and fault-tolerant shared storage technologies to maximize resiliency of production services.

• Red Hat Certified System Administrator (RHCSA) exam (EX200) and associated courses.
• Red Hat Cerfitied Engineer (RHCE) exam (EX294) and associated courses.

High availability clustering can improve reliability, availability, and resiliency of your mission-critical services, resulting in reduced downtime and easier hardware maintenance.

Red Hat has created this course in a way intended to benefit our customers, but each company and infrastructure is unique, and actual results or benefits may vary.

Impact on the individual

As a result of attending this course, you will be able to create, manage, and troubleshoot highly available network services and tightly-coupled cluster storage for business-critical applications.

Students should be able to demonstrate the following skills:

• Improve application uptime by using high availability clustering.
• Manage storage in an high availability environment using iSCSI initiators, HA-LVM or LVM Shared Volume Groups as appropriate, and GFS2 cluster file systems.
• Implement strategies to identify and eliminate single points of failure in high availability clusters.
