Course Description
OpenStack Administration II: Deploy Control Plane Services and Manage Data Plane Nodes (CL270) is designed for administrators of Red Hat OpenStack who want to enhance their skills in deploying and managing Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift. Participants will learn the processes, tools, and technologies to set up a functional OpenStack cluster, and to manage and troubleshoot data plane nodes to host cloud user workloads.
Through hands-on practice and real-world scenarios, attendees will install prerequisite operators and create custom resources effectively. In addition, attendees will develop troubleshooting skills for managing OpenStack compute nodes by using the External Data Plane Management (EDPM) automation engine.
This course is based on Red Hat OpenStack Services on OpenShift 18.
