Course Information
IBM Code: AN12GES / AN12G | Category / Subcategory: Power Systems / Power Systems |
Mode: Online and In-person | Duration (days): 5 |
Target Audience
This intermediate course is aimed at system administrators or anyone implementing and managing an AIX operating system in a multi-user Power Systems partitioned environment.
Desired Prerequisites:
You should be able to:
- Log in to an AIX system and set a user password
- Run basic AIX commands
- Manage files and controls
- Use the vi editor
- Use redirection, pipelines, and tests
- Use the find and grep utilities
- Use command substitution and variables
- Set and change Korn shell variables
- Write simple shell scripts
These skills can be obtained by attending AIX Basics (AN10G) or through equivalent AIX or UNIX knowledge. Additionally, it would be helpful (but not mandatory) for students to be familiar with partitioning concepts and technology taught in Power Systems for AIX I: LPAR Configuration and Planning (AN11G).
Instructors
The vast majority of IBM courses we offer are taught directly by our engineers. This is the only way we can guarantee the highest quality. We complement all training with our own materials and labs, based on our experience during deployments, migrations, and courses we’ve conducted over the years.
Added Value
Our courses are deeply role-oriented. It is different for a development team to need technology skills than it is for the people in charge of deploying and managing infrastructure. Therefore, beyond commands and tasks, we focus on solving the problems that come up in the daily work of each team. Providing them with the knowledge, skills, and abilities required for each project. Additionally, our documentation is based on the latest version of each product.
