IBM Storwize and FlashSystem with VIOS and IBM i (Hands-On Workshop)

CÓDIGO: SSVIG

DURACIÓN: 32 Hours (4 días)

Precio: €2.500,00

Descripción

The workshop provides training how to implement IBM Storwize, FlashSystem V9000 and FlashSystem 900 with IBM i using VIOS_NPIV connection. It also educated you in performance monitoring, Easy Tier, and disaster recovery solutions with PowerHA for i and Spectrum Virtualize systems.

The presentations give you basics about Flash technology and each of the included Storage systems. Information about VIOS and its several functions, especially NPIV will be presented. Detailed information how to implement Storage systems with VIOS, IBM i and PowerHA for i will be shown. Basics about Spectrum Control are also covered.

You will have the opportunity for extensive hands-on with each of the included Storage systems and VIOS_NPIV connection to IBM i. You will experience setting up zones in the switches. You will experience performance monitoring of an IBM i workload with Storage systems with Spectrum Control, and tracking Easy Tier relocation, you will also develop a Disaster recovery solution with PowerHA for i and Spectrum Virtualize.
