Seminarinhalt
This course provides focused training for experienced UNIX administrators on how to install, customize, and administer the AIX operating system in a multiuser IBM Power server partitioned environment. The course is based on AIX 7.3 running on a Power system managed by Hardware Management Console version 10 and provides practical discussions that are appropriate to earlier AIX releases.
