Audience
This course is for individuals who are assessing or planning to deploy storage network virtualization solutions
Pre-requisites
You should complete Introduction to Storage Networking (SN700) or have equivalent knowledge
Objectives
Create an implementation task list to integrate the SVC solution into the storage network fabric
Establish or update zoning policies to enable the SVC to control storage device access and facilitate storage provisioning to host servers
Utilize SVC user interfaces to manage the networked storage environment, assign storage to servers, migrate data, replicate data across storage subsystems (local and remote), and monitor storage access activities
Assess issues related to coexistence between the SVC and native disk storage access across host servers
Migrate existing data to the virtualized SVC environment
Use interfaces provided by the Subsystem Device Driver (SDD) to monitor and manage SDD multipath I/O access and path management
