This course describes the concepts and configuration details when implementing PowerVM Live Partition Mobility on POWER6 and POWER7 processor-based servers. Students will learn the requirements of Live Partition Mobility and will configure HMCs, Virtual I/O Servers, and partitions in preparation for performing active and inactive migrations. Live hands-on exercises will allow students to configure a lab environment and perform Live Partition Mobility operations.
The course is also offered in a live virtual classroom environment (ILO – Instructor Led Online), Implementing PowerVM Live Partition Mobility (ILO) (AX33).
COURSE OBJECTIVE:
• Describe key components of Live Partition Mobility
• Describe configuration settings necessary for the HMCs, the source and target Virtual I/O servers, and the mobile LPAR
• Perform and monitor PowerVM Live Partition Mobility operations
• Describe differences between active and inactive Live Partition Mobility configuration and operations
• Describe additional considerations when using dual Virtual I/O Server configurations, Active Memory Sharing partitions, and redundant HMCs
TARGET AUDIENCE:
The audiences for this advanced training include AIX/Linux technical support individuals, system administrators, system architects and engineers, and anyone who needs a technical operational understanding of PowerVM Live Partition Mobility.
