Classroom Course

Course title: Planning and Implementing the IBM TotalStorage DS8000 for zSeries Course duration: 2.0 days Course number: SS590 Abstract: Discuss installation and maintenance of the IBM TotalStorage DS8000 in a zSeries environment. Learn about the high level design of the IBM TotalStorage DS8000 series and identify the installation and customization tasks that are necessary to install and exploit the technology. Explore the components of the IBM TotalStorage DS8000, including the 2107 server, the Storage Management Console (SMC), IBM TotalStorage DS8000 Storage Manager (DS Storage Manager) software, and the terminology of the IBM TotalStorage DS8000 including, Disk Drive Modules (DDMs), array site, array, rank, extent pool, and logical volume. Learn how to install, cable, and configure the DS8000 system using the IBM TotalStorage DS Storage Manager Graphical User Interface (GUI) and the IBM TotalStorage DS Command-Line Interface (DS CLI). Complete labs on the DS Storage Manager using the offline simulator mode of the DS Storage Manager. Hands-On Labs Eight labs are included to address accessing configuration information using the DS8000 Information Center, using the DS8000 GUI, and using the DS CLI. This is an intermediate course for storage administrators, systems programmers, IBM System Engineers (SE), and support groups who install and maintain the DS8000 in the zSeries environment.
