VMAX All Flash and VMAX3 Configuration Management (VMAXCM)

This Specialist level course provides participants with an in-depth understanding of configuration tasks on the VMAX All Flash and VMAX3 Family of arrays. Key features and functions of the VMAX All Flash and VMAX3 arrays are covered in detail. Topics include storage provisioning concepts, virtual provisioning, automated tiering (FAST), device and port management, service level based storage provisioning and eNAS. Participants will use Unisphere for VMAX and Solutions Enabler (SYMCLI) to manage configuration changes. The lab exercises will be performed on Open Systems hosts (traditional and virtualized) attached to VMAX3 arrays.
