Power Systems for AIX - Virtualization II: Advanced PowerVM and Performance

CODE: AN31G

DURÉE: 32 Hours (4 Jours)

PRIX H.T.: €3 990,00

Description

You will learn how to implement advanced IBM PowerVM features, such as Active Memory Sharing, Active Memory Expansion, shared dedicated processors, multiple shared processor pools, and Live Partition Mobility. Additionally, you will learn skills to implement, measure, analyze, and tune PowerVM virtualization features for optimal performance on IBM Power Systems servers. This course focuses on the features that relate to the performance of POWER6 and POWER7 processors, AIX, and the special monitoring, configuring, and tuning needs of logical partitions (LPARs). This course does not cover application monitoring and tuning. You will also learn AIX performance analysis and tuning tools that help an administrator take advantage of shared processors and other virtualization features of the IBM Power Systems servers.

This course provides lectures and hands-on labs in a face-to-face classroom setting. The course is also offered in a live virtual classroom environment (Instructor Led Online - ILO) with hands-on labs: Power Systems for AIX - Virtualization II: AdvPowerVM and Performance (ILO) (AX310).

If you are enrolling in a Self Paced Virtual Classroom or Web Based Training course, before you enroll, please review the Self-Paced Virtual Classes and Web-Based Training Classes on our Terms and Conditions page, as well as the system requirements, to ensure that your system meets the minimum requirements for this course.
