HPE Primera II: Monitoring and Replication [HPE_HM9Q6S]

OVERVIEW

This course provides knowledge of the advanced capabilities

of the HPE Primera storage arrays, including lower level data

reduction features, reporting, monitoring and alerting, QOS,

and local and remote replication options. You gain a practical

understanding of HPE Primera array capabilities using

extensive hands-on lab exercises.
