IBM TotalStorage DS8000 Implementation Workshop for Open Systems
Overview
To learn about the DS8000 storage subsystem and its hardware components and logical structure for open systems hosts. Students will configure hosts and fixed block logical unit numbers (LUNs) for the DS8000 storage subsystem using a DS8000 Storage Manager graphical user interface (GUI) and review the DS command line interface (DSCLI) for scripting configuration functions. Configuration can be handled online or offline, with import and export capabilities for configuration files created in the offline configuration simulator.
This is an intermediate course for storage administrators, systems programmers, IBM System Engineers (SE), and support groups responsible for installation and maintenance of the DS8000 in the open systems environment.Objetives:
