Course Description:

'' IBM TotalStorage Productivity Center (TPC) provides a set of policy-driven automated tools for managing storage capacity, availability, events, performance and assets in an enterprise environment. IBM TotalStorage Productivity Center can help identify, evaluate, control and predict enterprise storage management assets. Because it is policy-based, it can detect potential problems and automatically make adjustments based on the policies and actions that you define. Learn to install, configure, and administer IBM TPC 3.1 in a Windows 2003 environment. Review additional demonstrations that include lessons on TPC 3.1 for Red Hat Linux Advanced Server 3.0 and AIX 5.3. Complete hands-on lab exercises to reinforce instructor based lectures and demonstrations.

This is an intermediate course for system administrators who are responsible for all aspects of storage management in a SAN environment.
