WHO SHOULD ATTEND

This intermediate course is intended for system administrators or anyone implementing and managing an IBM AIX operating system in a multiuser IBM Power partitioned environment.

PREREQUISITES

Recommended skills:

  • Log in to an AIX system and set a user password
  • Execute basic AIX commands - Manage files and directories
  • Use the vi editor - Use redirection, pipes, and tees
  • Use the utilities find and grep
  • Use the command and variable substitution - Set and change Korn shell variables
  • Write simple shell scripts

These skills can be acquired by attending AIX Basics (AN10D1DG) or through equivalent AIX or UNIX or LINUX knowledge. I would be helpful (but not mandatory) if students were familiar with partitioning concepts and technology taught in Power Systems for AIX I: LPAR Configuration and Planning (AN11G).
