Learn to implement advanced PowerVM features such as Active Memory Sharing, Shared Dedicated Processors, Multiple Shared Processor Pools, N_Port Virtualization, and Remote Live Partition Mobility.

This course focuses on the features that relate to the performance of the POWER6 processor, AIX 6.1, and the special monitoring, configuring, and tuning needs of logical partitions (LPARs). This course does not cover application monitoring and tuning.

You will learn skills to implement, measure, analyze, and tune PowerVM virtualization features for optimal performance on IBM System p servers.

You will also learn about the AIX 6.1 performance analysis and tuning tools that enable an administrator to take advantage of the Micro-Partitioning and other virtualization features of the System p servers.

Hands-on lab exercises reinforce each lecture and give the students practical experience.

This course is for anyone responsible for implementing and managing virtualization features on a System p server including:

AIX technical support individuals
System administrators
Systems engineers
System Architects

Students should complete:

Power Systems for AIX I: LPAR Planning and Configuration (AN11) or (AX11) or
Power Systems for AIX - Virtualization I: Implementing Virtualization (AN30) or (AX30)

or have equivalent LPAR skills

Describe the effect of the POWER6 virtualization features on performance and monitoring, such as: Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT), Micro-Partitioning, Multiple Shared Processor Pools (MSPP), shared dedicated capacity, Active Memory Sharing (AMS) and other virtualization features
Interpret the outputs of AIX 6.1performance monitoring and tuning tools used to view the impact of SMT, Micro-Partitioning, additional shared processor pool activations and device virtualization. The tools include: vmstat, iostat, sar, topas, trace, curt, mpstat, lparstat, smtctl
List various sources of information and support related to AIX 6.1 performance tools, system sizing, system tuning, and AIX 6.1 enhancements and new features
Perform a Live Partition Mobility between two different POWER6 servers
Describe the New features available with the Virtual I/O Server version 2.1 and version 2.2 such as: N_port ID Virtualization, Heterogeous Multi-threading, Virtual Tape devices, Active Memory sharing
Describe and implement the Active Memory Sharing feature

IBM PowerVM II: Advanced Management and Performance Training Course in Nigeria

Nigeria is located on the western coast of Africa. As the most populous country in Africa, Nigeria is a multinational union with more than 250 ethic groups. Even though the official language is English, there are over 520 native languages spoken in Nigeria. Their huge reserve of petroleum plays a crucial role in the Nigerian economy. While Abuja is the capital of Nigeria, its largest city is Lagos.

Nigeria is a member of the African Union and the British Commonwealth. Nigeria is named after the great Niger River and its national animal is an eagle. Nationals Parks are quite common in Nigeria and all of them are vast and breathtaking. Gashaka Gumti, Kainji Lake, Yankari and Okomu are the most popular national parks.

Broaden your IT expertise with our wide-ranging courses, covering programming, software development, business skills, data science, cybersecurity, cloud computing and virtualization. Count on our seasoned instructors to deliver immersive training and practical insights wherever you choose in Nigeria.
