IBM PowerVM II: Advanced Management and Performance

IBM Training for IBM PowerVM II: Advanced Management and Performance

Skill Level: Advanced

Modality: CR - Classroom based Trainng or ILO - Instructor Led Online Class

Duration: 4.5 Day/s

Starting Price: $ - 5,136

Overview:

Learn advanced IBM PowerVM features, including Active Memory Expansion, shared processors, availability, performance management and enhanced VIOS administration using the HMC.

Students in this course will learn how to implement advanced IBM PowerVM features, such as Active Memory Expansion, shared dedicated processors and multiple shared processor pools. Students will also be exposed to new availability and performance management features such as Simplified Remote Restart, Hybrid Network Virtualization and enhanced VIOS administration using the HMC. Additionally, students will learn skills to implement, measure, analyze and tune PowerVM virtualization features for optimal performance on IBM Power servers. This course focuses on two main areas. First, the features that relate to the performance of IBM Power servers, AIX, VIOS and the special monitoring, configuring, and tuning needs of logical partitions (LPARs). This course does not cover application monitoring and tuning. Second, the course will explore advanced features for availability and managing and monitoring virtualization and PowerVM virtualized workloads on IBM Power. Students 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 servers. Hands-on lab exercises reinforce each lecture and give the students practical experience.
