Define performance terminology
Describe the methodology for managing performance on a system
Identify the set of basic AIX tools to monitor, analyze, and tune a system
Use AIX tools to determine common bottlenecks in the Central Processing Unit
(CPU), Virtual Memory Manager (VMM), Logical Volume Manager (LVM), internal disk
Input/Output (I/O), and network subsystems
Use AIX tools to demonstrate techniques to tune the subsystems
Požadované vstupné znalosti
You are expected to have basic AIX system administration skills. These skills
can be obtained by attending the following courses:
- AIX System Administration I: Implementation (AU140)
or
- Power Systems for AIX II: Implementation and Administration (AN120)
It is very helpful to have a strong background in TCP/IP networking to
support the network performance portion of the course. These skills can be built
or reinforced by attending:
- AIX 5L Configuring TCP/IP (AU070)
or
- TCP/IP for AIX Administrators (AN210)
It is also very helpful to have a strong background in PowerVM (paricularly
micropartitioning and the role of the virtual I/O server). These skills
can be built or reinforced by attending:
- System p LPAR and Virtualization I: Planning and Configuration (AU730)
or
- Power Systems for AIX - Virtualization I: Implementing Virtualization
(AN300)
