Course Overview

Top

This specialist level course provides the knowledge required to deploy and manage VMAX3 array-based local and remote replication solutions for business continuity needs. Operational details and implementation considerations for EMC TimeFinder SnapVX and Symmetrix Remote Data Facility (SRDF) are covered. Lessons include considerations for performing local and remote replication operations in physical and virtualized environments. Hands-on lab exercises using Symmetrix Command Line Interface (SYMCLI) and Unisphere for VMAX provide the opportunity to learn and validate the material covered in the lectures. Lab exercises will be performed in physical (Sun Solaris and Windows 2008) and virtualized (VMware ESXi) hosts attached to VMAX3 arrays.
