Course Overview
TopUse Red Hat OpenShift to manage OpenStack services and RHEL compute nodes that run VM-based workloads.
OpenStack Administration: Control Plane Management (CL170) helps Red Hat OpenStack cluster administrators to manage the health and performance of OpenStack control plane services, to troubleshoot issues by inspecting Kubernetes operators and workloads, and to configure OpenStack control plane services by using Kubernetes custom resources.
This course is based on Red Hat OpenShift Services on OpenStack 18.
Note: This course is offered as a 2-day in person class, a 3-day virtual class, or is self-paced class. Durations might vary based on the delivery. For full course details, scheduling, and pricing, select your location, and then click “Get started” in the main menu.
