Overview
This course provides the learner with an in-depth understanding of how to manage, monitor and maintain a functional VPLEX system. Operational aspects of VPLEX (Local and Metro) using Unisphere for VPLEX and the VPLEX CLI are covered. Lab exercises provide hands-on experience. Provisioning virtualized storage from VPLEX to hosts and performing mobility and mirroring operations on live virtual volumes is emphasized. Integration of VPLEX into existing data centers with live production data and interoperability considerations are included.

If you need training for 3 or more people, you should ask us about onsite training. Putting aside the obvious location benefit, content can be customised to better meet your business objectives and more can be covered than in a public classroom. Its a cost effective option. One on one training can be delivered too, at reasonable rates.
Submit an enquiry from any page on this site, and let us know you are interested in the requirements box, or simply mention it when we contact you.
