Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerus server advanced installation
Learn how to install a long-lasting, reliable, secure and easy to manage Ubuntu Linux server using RAID and LVM
Linux is known for being secure and reliable. A Linux server can last for a long time. Ubuntu is a very popular Linux distribution, because it's easy to use.
When you install a server it's important to build a secure and long-lasting one. A regular re-installation is not an option for a production server. But what can you do and what do you have to care about to have an easy to manage and secure Linux server?
Your server's lifecycle is based on your installation. You can choose the defaults from the installer. It's quick and easy. But it won't give you the best result. If you are fine with regular (every two years) re-installations or every time you want to replace or extend disks, the defaults can be used. If you want to use the real power of Linux, you should pay more attention to the installation.
Linux has a lot of good "life saving" features, like RAID and LVM. The first saves your data from disk failures while LVM gives you easy management of disks, including easy replacement and easy storage extension.
In this course you'll learn all required and recommended steps to build a stable and secure server like a pro using the new Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerus server.
The video course contains 60 minutes HD videos, where a professional Linux admin (with 22 years Linux experience) shows you every step you need for the best result. All steps are shown on screen and explained so that you will understand what and why you have to do.

Read MoreThis course was enjoyable and very informative. The instructor explains some of the reasons for the choices and options you have during the installation, as well as which options could cause problems and which options could possibly work as alternates. He also explains why you should or should not choose the options during installation, which could cause errors and what the options do and mean. This was extremely important to me as I am relatively new to Linux.

Read MoreThis course is an excellent step-by-step tutorial on the basic installation of of a RAID6 Ubuntu server. It thoroughly explains the setup of the RAID disks and basic server. As a seasoned DEBIAN admin, I found this course very well done with side notes that explained basic reasoning behind certain installation decisions. I look forward to advanced server installation topics.
