Power Systems for AIX - PowerVM I Implementing Virtualization

This advanced course is appropriate for System Administrators, Technical Support Personnel, and Business Partners responsible for implementing LPARs on IBM Power Systems with AIX servers.

• Configure virtual SCSI devices that are backed by physical volumes, logical volumes, and optical media devices 
• Configure the Optical Media Repository, load a CD image, and use it to install a new AIX partition
• Configure virtual Fibre channel devices using NPIV technology
• Configure Ethernet link aggregation for load balancing and backup channel in the VIOS
• Configure Shared Ethernet adapter failover and load sharing
• Configure vNIC failover
• Perform Virtual I/O Server maintenance operations

You must have advanced system administration experience with AIX 6 or AIX 7. This prerequisite can be met by attending one of the following courses:

Power Systems for AIX II: Implementation and Administration (AN12G) 

Power Systems for AIX III: Advanced Administration and Problem Determination (AN15G) 

AIX Jumpstart for UNIX Professionals (AN14G)

Alternatively, you must have equivalent AIX and LPAR skills.

General TCP/IP knowledge is strongly recommended.

You are also expected to have logical partition administration skills on Power Systems servers, which can be obtained by attending Power Systems for AIX I: LPAR Configuration and Planning (AN11G).
