IBM Storwize V7000 Implementation Workshop
This
course is designed to leverage SAN storage connectivity by integrating a layer
of intelligence of virtualization, the IBM Storwize V7000 to facilitate storage
application data access independence from storage management functions and
requirements. The focus is on planning and implementation tasks associated with
integrating the Storwize V7000 into the storage area network. It also explains
how to:
•
Centralize storage provisioning to host servers from common storage pools using
internal storage and SAN attached external heterogeneous storage.
•
Improve storage utilization effectiveness using Thin Provisioning and Real-Time
Compression
•
Implement storage tiering and optimize solid state drives (SSDs) or flash
systems usage with Easy Tier.
•
Facilitate the coexistence and migration of data from non-virtualization to the
virtualized environment.
•
Utilize network-level storage subsystem-independent data replication services
to satisfy backup and disaster recovery requirements.
•
This course lecture offering is at the Storwize V7000 V7.6. level.
