Power Systems for AIX I: LPAR Configuration and Planning

• This course is appropriate for system administrators, technical support individuals, and IBM business partners who implement LPARs on IBM Power Systems.

• Describe important concepts that are associated with managing POWER processor-based systems, such as logical partitioning, dynamic partitioning, virtual devices, virtual processors, virtual consoles, virtual local area network (VLAN), and
• shared processors
• Describe the features of the PowerVM editions
• Describe the functions provided by the HMC
• Configure and manage the HMC, including users and permissions, software, start and shutdown, remote access features, network configuration, security features, HMC backup and restore options, and the HMC reload procedure
• Describe the rules that are associated with allocating resources, including dedicated processors, processing units for Micro-Partitioning, memory, physical and virtual I/O for AIX and Linux partitions
• Configure and manage LPARs by using the HMC graphical user interface (GUI) and HMC commands
• Power on and power off the Power Systems server
• Use the HMC to back up and restore partition data
• Perform dynamic LPAR operations (DLPAR) 

• This introductory course does not require any logical partitioning experience.

General TCP/IP knowledge is strongly recommended.
