Storage OverviewThe development of storage from SCSI onwards Explaining RAID LevelsThe theoretical framework of storage management Implementing RAID levelsAn introduction the VXVM schema. Software InstallationThere is more than one method of attack. The course covers them. Disk Initialisation and Disk Group CreationCovering both CDS and sliced disk, the course looks at the whole range of disk formats. Disk groups now have a number of attributes with which the competent system administrator needs to be familiar. It is possible to choose default settings for disk and DG attributes. Disks may be removed as well as added to VXVM! Basic Volume ConfigurationVolume creation and removal are a central message of the course. Creating volumes with appropriate structure and attributes is an important skill. The course offers lots of practice in this area. Advanced Volume OperationsGoing beyond the basic, it is possible to use volume structures to achieve effects beyond efficient secure storage of data, eg perform online backup. The course imparts skills in manipulating volumes after creation, facilitating the provision of a high level of service in storage administration. Performance Monitoring and TuningVeritas provide tools for monitoring volume/disk/sub-disk performance. Analysis of the information requires insight into sub-system behaviour. This module looks at a range of performance scenarios and the data clues surrounding. The module take a practical look at diagnosis and corrective action of performance related problems.
