Course title: System p LPAR and Virtualization II: Implementing Advanced Configurations
Course duration: 4.0 days
Course number: AU78
Abstract:

Learn advanced skills to plan, set up, and implement basic and advanced configurations of the Virtual Input/Output (VIO) Server and its clients including high availability solutions when using the Advanced POWER Virtualization (APV) features on IBM System p5 systems. As you build the virtualized environment, learn to leverage NIM by configuring a NIM Master LPAR and use it to install AIX clients. Learn about the supported Virtual Small Computer System Interface (VSCSI) and Virtual Local Area Networks (VLAN) configurations which improves availability, including dual VIO Server configurations. In this course, learn how to implement and test some of those solutions.

This is an expert course for individuals who manage and plan an IBM System p5 server running the AIX 5L V5.3 operating system. This includes:

AIX technical support individuals System administrators Systems engineers System architects
