Course Description:

'' the installing and configuring storage area networks course provides students with hands-on experience in implementing storage area networks (sans) with the sun storedge open san architecture. students install sun supported fibre channel switches, including sun storedge network fc switches, brocade silkworm switches, and mcdata sphereon switches. students then configure various fabric topologies culminating in a large fabric, core/edge configuration. students also employ techniques such as zoning to consolidate large amounts of data in a secure and highly available environment.



who can benefit

students who can benefit from this course are storage integrators, architects, and administrators who are responsible for the implementation of storage area networks.



prerequisites


to make full use of the lab time, this course requires a thorough understanding of the fundamental concepts of storage area networks.

to successfully complete this course, students must be able to:



install and configure the sun storedge t3 array or sun storedge 6120 array

manage volumes with storage management software

explain the role of the technical components that comprise a san

differentiate between san topologies and identify the benefits and limitations of each

explain how to use zoning techniques to obtain storage management objectives



delegates will learn how to


differentiate between the different versions of sun’s san software

implement and configure a san environment

install and upgrade a san from a previous release to the current release

install, configure, and implement switches using qlogic’s sanbox manager, brocade’s web tools, and mcdata’s sanpilot software

use qlogic (sun storedge network fc switch), brocade, and mcdata command-line interfaces for switch management

determine and verify correct firmware and patch levels for the san environment

use the various sun diagnostics and utilities for verification of san implementation

create and configure zones within a san environment

understand how sun storedge traffic manager software is used in a san to ensure data availability

create a global san using multiple servers, host bus adapters (hba’s), switches, and storage devices

module 5a �configuring zones with a sun network fc switch (qlogic)





use the sun sanbox manager to zone a san

use the sun sanbox manager to monitor and report the status of the san and devices connected to the san

use the cli utility of the different switches tozones



module 5b �configuring zones with brocade switches





use the brocade silkworm web tools to zone a san

use the brocade silkworm web tools to monitor and report the status of the san and devices connected to the san

use the cli utility of the different switches tozones



module 5c �configuring zones with mcdata switches





use the mcdata sanpilot to zone a san

use the mcdata sanpilot to monitor and report the status of the san and devices connected to the san

use the cli utility of the different switches tozones



module 6 �using sun storedge traffic manager software





describe the role of sun storedge traffic manager software in maintaining data availability and security

configure sun storedge traffic manager software to redirect san traffic during a failure in the san



module 7 �creating a global san





plan and integrate a large san consisting of multiple hosts and storage devices using sun network fc switches, brocade silkworm switches, and mcdata switches
