Summary

The OS X Server Essentials training course is an intensive 3 day training course with plenty of hands-on labs. Courses are restricted to eight delegates or less so you’ll get plenty of personal attention. The course has been specially designed for technical coordinators and entry-level system administrators.

This course was originally designed to prepare delegates for Apple certification. With the release of OS X 10.11 El Capitan, Apple has removed the certification path from Server Essentials, but it remains an invaluable course for techs and admins that need to install and configure OS X Server to provide network-based services like file sharing, DHCP, and collaboration services.

This course also teaches you about the tools required for efficiently managing and deploying OS X and software updates.

  • Day one covers OS X Server Installation and Configuration, focusing on initial installation and setup, DNS configuration, SSL Certificates, user account creation and remote administration and monitoring
  • Day two covers Network Accounts: how to create and host a directory service, OS X and device management, File sharing and Deployment solutions
  • Day three teaches Networking services such as network backups through Time Machine, VPN, DHCP and Website hosting. There is also a collection of collaborative services such as mail, contacts and calendar discussed
