Course Format: Classroom | E-learning | Virtual Class | Online | On-site | Blended | Self-paced

Course Description:

'' Learn how HP OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) 7.5 can be used to maximize your network’s availability and performance. You will explore the operational and administrative aspects of NNM on UNIX systems. This is the first of three courses in the NNM curriculum.

Customize it:

This 2-day HP Openview NNM on UNIX course will be customized to your needs and specifications. Eno.com will assist you in identifying those needs and specifications. A word to the wise, there are many vendors of HPOV training. They will typically have a broad and general course, one size fits all, already developed and just put your organization’s name on the title slide. This minimizes their effort and time investment. At Eno.com, every course is made to your exact and exacting specifications. We help you ensure what you are getting is what you really need even if at the beginning you weren’t too sure of what that was. We fit the class to your needs. We never fit you into our “standard� one size fits all, class.

Audience:

NNM Channel Partners: Consultants, system architects, integrators and planners
NNM Customers: System and network administrators
HP Software Engineers involved in pre-sales and post-sales
