IBM FlashSystem FS5200 / FS7200 / FS9200 Workshop + (optional HyperSwap)
Code: FSX200Description
The focus of this course is on planning and implementation tasks associated with integrating the FlashSystem FS5200 / FS7200 / FS9200 into the network. The course can focus on one of the three models: FS5200, FS7200, FS9200, or can cover all of them if necessary. In addition, there is a 5th option course day focusing on HyperSwap.
Audience
This intermediate course is for individuals who assess or plan to deploy the IBM FlashSystem FS5200 / FS7200 / FS9200 and leverage storage network virtualization solutions.
Prerequisites
The following courses are required prior to this class:
• Introduction to Storage (SS01G)
