This course enables a new system operator to develop basic to intermediate level skills needed for day-to-day operations of the Power System with IBM i. Specifically, the course explains how to:

• Use the online help and references
• Send, display, and reply to messages
• Monitor and control jobs, devices, and job and output queues
• Start and stop the system
• Create and change user profiles
• Use authorization lists and group profiles
• Manage system configuration
• Save and restore objects, libraries, and the system
• Monitor job and history logs
• Diagnose a system problem
• Order, receive, and apply PTFs
• Perform all of these functions using a 5250 emulation session as well as IBM i Access Client Solutions and IBM Navigator for i

Hands-on exercises reinforce the lecture topics and prepare the student to successfully operate a Power System with IBM i.

• Send, display, and respond to messages
• Use the online help and reference materials
• Monitor and control job queues, active jobs, and output queues
• Create and change user profiles
• Use authorization lists and group profiles
• Start and stop Power Systems with IBM i
• Manage system devices, user display stations, and printers
• Save and restore objects and libraries
• Monitor job and history logs
• Diagnose a system problem
• Order, receive, and install PTFs

This course is intended for the person who has responsibility for daily system operations.

It is not intended for technical audiences who are seeking an in-depth look at how the Power System with IBM i works. This audience should instead attend the IBM i Technical Introduction (OL4AG).
