Introduction

- [Instructor] In this section, we'll learn how to administer availability, and we'll focus on three primary areas. We'll start out with vSphere High Availability, which can protect our virtual machines in the event of situations like a host failure. So we'll learn how High Availability works and how to configure it. We'll also learn how to make vCenter itself highly available, and how to do things like manual and scheduled backups of vCenter. And we'll conclude this section with an examination of false tolerance, which can be used to provide us with zero downtime failover for critical virtual machines.
