Red Hat Services Management and Automation – RH358
IT professionals who have some experience managing Linux® systems and would like to learn more about how to deploy and manage the network services that come with Red Hat® Enterprise Linux—which are especially crucial in today’s IT data center—should take the Red Hat Services Management and Automation (RH358) course. Before using Red Hat Ansible® Engine to automate your work in a scalable, repeatable way, you will learn how to manually install, configure, and manage the most basic settings of these services.
Overview
The Red Hat Services Management and Automation course, sometimes referred to as EX358 or RH358, offers a thorough grasp of the fundamental network services and how to manage them in a Linux system. In order to maintain a strong IT infrastructure, this course aims to give students the skills they need to effectively manage and automate a variety of network services.Through a sequence of courses, learners will explore subjects like DNS and DHCP server configuration, link aggregation for enhanced redundancy, and network service management. Using MariaDB to set up SQL databases, Apache HTTPD or Nginx to manage web servers, and Varnish and HAProxy to optimize web traffic are all covered in the course.
What you will Learn in this Red Hat Services Management and Automation – RH358 Course?
- Master key tools and techniques for managing network services to ensure reliable and efficient network operations.
- Configure link aggregation to enhance network connection redundancy and throughput using Linux network teaming.
- Manage DNS services, including troubleshooting, configuring caching nameservers, and setting up authoritative DNS servers.
- Implement and configure DHCP, DHCPv6, and SLAAC for efficient IPv4 and IPv6 address assignment.
- Set up network printers using IPP Everywhere and manage print queues to support organizational printing needs.
- Configure email transmission using system tools and Postfix to send emails through an outbound mail relay.
- Understand the fundamental operations of SQL databases and set up a basic MariaDB database service with the capability to perform simple SQL queries.
- Configure Apache HTTPD or Nginx web servers, set up virtual hosts, and secure connections using TLS-based encryption.
- Optimize web server performance by caching static content with Varnish and managing traffic with HAProxy for TLS termination and load balancing.
- Provide and manage file-based network storage using NFS and SMB protocols, and configure iSCSI initiators to access block-based storage.
