Course Overview
This course provides the learner with an in-depth understanding of how to manage, monitor and maintain a functional VPLEX system. Operational aspects of VPLEX (Local and Metro) using Unisphere for VPLEX and the VPLEX CLI are covered. Lab exercises provide hands-on experience. Provisioning virtualized storage from VPLEX to hosts and performing mobility and mirroring operations on live virtual volumes is emphasized. Integration of VPLEX into existing data centers with live production data and interoperability considerations are included.
