VCS-5SOLARIS-ADV --- Advanced VCS 5.0 for Solaris
Overview
The Advanced VCS 5.0 for Solaris course is designed for the IT professional tasked with managing, configuring, and using VCS clusters in an enterprise environment where there is a need to extend to multiple clusters and multiple sites.
Objectives
The Advanced VCS 5.0 for Solaris course is designed for the IT professional tasked with managing, configuring, and using VCS clusters in an enterprise environment where there is a need to extend to multiple clusters and multiple sites. This five-day, instructor-led, hands-on class covers how to configure secure clusters, establish centralized management of multiple clusters, manage multisite environments, and maintain and troubleshoot the cluster. Students will also learn how to configure campus clusters and global clusters for disaster recovery purposes, and understand how VCS can be used in virtual environments. Note that this course does not teach basic clustering concepts and is a follow-on course from the Veritas Cluster Server 5.x for Solaris course.
PreRequisites
You should have working knowledge of Solaris system administration and configuration. Completion of the Veritas Storage Foundation 5.x (five-day, instructor-led) and Veritas Cluster Server 5.x (Suite) (five-day, instructor-led) courses, or equivalent experience on each product, is required.
Who Can Benefit
This course is for system administrators, architects, and technical support personnel who are responsible for implementing, managing, and supporting multiple VCS clusters across multiple sites in an enterprise environment.
