This course is for anyone responsible for implementing and
managing virtualization features on a System p server
including:
* AIX technical support individuals
* System administrators
* Systems engineers
* System Architects
* Describe the effect of the POWER6 virtualization features on
performance and monitoring, such as: Simultaneous Multithreading
(SMT), Micro-Partitioning, Multiple Shared Processor Pools (MSPP),
shared dedicated capacity, Active Memory Sharing (AMS) and other
virtualization features
* Interpret the outputs of AIX 6.1performance monitoring and tuning
tools used to view the impact of SMT, Micro-Partitioning,
additional shared processor pool activations and device
virtualization. The tools include: vmstat, iostat, sar, topas,
trace, curt, mpstat, lparstat, smtctl
* List various sources of information and support related to AIX
6.1 performance tools, system sizing, system tuning, and AIX 6.1
enhancements and new features
* Perform a Live Partition Mobility between two different POWER6
servers
* Describe the New features available with the Virtual I/O Server
version 2.1 and version 2.2 such as: N_port ID Virtualization,
Heterogeous Multi-threading, Virtual Tape devices, Active Memory
sharing
* Describe and implement the Active Memory Sharing feature
Learn to implement advanced PowerVM features such as Active
Memory Sharing, Shared Dedicated Processors, Multiple Shared
Processor Pools, N_Port Virtualization, and Remote Live Partition
Mobility.
This course focuses on the features that relate to the performance
of the POWER6 processor, AIX 6.1, and the special monitoring,
configuring, and tuning needs of logical partitions (LPARs). This
course does not cover application monitoring and tuning.
You will learn skills to implement, measure, analyze, and tune
PowerVM virtualization features for optimal performance on IBM
System p servers.
You will also learn about the AIX 6.1 performance analysis and
tuning tools that enable an administrator to take advantage of the
Micro-Partitioning and other virtualization features of the System
p servers.
Hands-on lab exercises reinforce each lecture and give the students
practical experience.
