Duration: 2 Days
In this course, you will cover remote copy, system reporter, adaptive optimization, and peer motion. You will also cover performance, cost, high availability, and the new EVA to HP 3PAR Online Migration feature. You will spend 50 percent of class in hands-on labs using HP 3PAR arrays.
What You Will Learn
- Understand the difference between synchronous, periodic asynchronous, and
synchronous long distance (SLD) modes
- Perform a failover of a remote copy
group (RCG)
- Use Management Console 4.3 GUI and the CLI to manage remote copy
- Use System Reporter quick reports, custom reports, and scheduled reports
- Configure e-mail alerts in system reporter
- Set up an Adaptive Optimization
(AO) configuration
- Know how SSDs, Fibre Channel (FC), SAS (FC - Fast Class),
and Near-Line (NL) drives fit into an AO tiered storage solution
- Use the AO
reports in System Reporter and the new AO reports in Management Console 4.3
- Impact of RAID on overall performance, cost, and availability
- HP 3PAR caching
algorithms
- Use the CLI stat commands for troubleshooting HP 3PAR performance
issues
- Use the system tuner capabilities
- Administrate a peer motion
configuration
