What you will need

  • This course is not designed to be an introduction to the underlying Linux topics contained therein. It is to help the attendee understand the weird and very specific way that SUSE does it's versions of Linux. Those relatively new to foundational Linux concepts should take the LPI Linux Essentials or Linux+ courses to brush up on the fundamentals.

What are Hands-on Labs

Hands-on Labs are guided, interactive experiences that help you learn and practice real-world scenarios in real cloud environments.
