Trainingsbeschrijving

Naar boven

Learn the concepts of Logical Partitioning (LPAR) for Power System servers with IBM i. In this course you begin with an overview of LPAR on Power System servers, followed with more detailed information on configuration planning and implementation using hands-on exercises to create and implement logical partitions.

Also, learn about partial processors, dynamic allocation and reallocation of memory, processors, interactive Commercial Processing Workloads (CPW), buses, Graphical User Interface (GUI), Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN), Host Ethernet Adapters (HEA) and System Planning Tool (SPT). Use IBM Power7 or Power6 servers and emphasize the new hardware, including the use of the Hardware Management Console (HMC).

Class Connect™

Met Class Connect worden klaslokalen virtueel met elkaar verbonden. Class Connect biedt u de mogelijkheid om een training klassikaal op afstand bij te wonen in een Global Knowledge locatie bij u in de buurt. Een hoge kwaliteitsverbinding (HD audio en video) tussen de klaslokalen garandeert de cursisten een maximale interactie met de docent en met elkaar. Samen met uw medecursisten ziet u de docent en de andere cursisten op een groot scherm alsof u er zelf bijzit.

Doelgroep
