SAN Volume Controller (SVC) Planning and Implementation Workshop

3.840,00€

This course is designed to leverage SAN storage connectivity by integrating a layer of intelligence in  virtualization. The SAN Volume Controller (SVC) facilitates storage application data access independence from storage management functions and requirements. This focus is on planning and implementation tasks associated with integrating the SVC into the storage area network. 

It also explains how to:

• Centralize storage provisioning to host servers from common storage pools.
• Improve storage optimization and efficiency through Thin Provisioning, Data Reduction and Compression 
• Implement storage tiering and optimize flash drives and storage usage with Easy Tier
• Facilitate the coexistence and migration of data from non-virtualized to the virtualized environment. 
• Utilize network-level storage subsystem-independent data replication services to satisfy backup and disaster recovery requirement.

This course offering is at the IBM Spectrum Virtualize V8.2.1.1 level.

Course Agenda

• IBM SAN Volume Controller – Introduction
• IBM SAN Volume Controller – Hardware architecture 
• IBM SAS-Attached storage
• IBM SVC RAID protection solutions
• IBM SVC System – scaling
• IBM SVC System – Installation and management access
• IBM Spectrum Virtualize – Storage provisioning
• IBM Spectrum Virtualize – Volume allocation
• IBM Spectrum Virtualize – Host integration
• IBM Spectrum Virtualize – Data reduction technologies
• IBM Spectrum Virtualize – Easy Tier
• IBM Spectrum Virtualize – Data migration
• IBM Spectrum Virtualize – FlashCopy and Consistency group

  • Description

Description

At SIXE we have been providing official IBM training around the world for over 12 years. Get the best training from our specialists in Europe. We have important discounts and offers for two or more students.

Course details

IBM course code: SNV1GCategory: IBM Storage / Storage
Delivery: Online & on-site**Course length in days: 4

Target audience

This intermediate lecture and exercise-based course is for individuals who are assessing and/or planning to deploy networked storage virtualization solutions.

Desired Prerequisites:

The following courses are required prior to this class:

• Introduction to Storage (SS01G) 
• Storage Area Networking Fundamentals (SN71G) or (SN71DG) or equivalent experience

A basic understanding on the concepts of open systems, disk storage systems and I/O operations.

Instructors

The great majority of the IBM courses we offer are taught directly by our engineers. This is the only way we can guarantee the highest quality. We complement all the training with our own materials and laboratories, based on our experience during the deployments, migrations and courses that we have carried out during all these years.

Added value

Our courses are deeply role oriented. To give an example, the needs for technology mastery are different for developer teams and for the people in charge of deploying and managing the underlying infrastructure. The level of previous experience is also important and we take it very seriously. That is why beyond (boring) commands and tasks, we focus on solving the problems that arise in the day to day of each team. Providing them with the knowledge, competencies and skills required for each project. In addition, our documentation is based on the latest version of each product.
