  • AIX 6 System Administration II: Problem Determination (AU16)
  • AIX 5L Implementation Differences (AU37)
  • AIX 6 Jumpstart for UNIX Professionals (AW18)
  • or have equivalent AIX skills.

Students do not need any experience with logical partitioning.

General TCP/IP knowledge is strongly recommended. This prerequisite may be met by attending:

  • AIX 5L Configuring TCP/IP (AU07)

  • Describe important concepts associated with managing POWER6 processor-based systems, such as Logical partitioning (LPAR), dynamic partitioning, virtual devices, virtual processors, virtual consoles, virtual Local Area Network (VLAN), and shared processors
  • Describe the features of the PowerVM Editions.
