Managing HP 3PAR StoreServ II (HK904S)

COURSE OVERVIEW

This course covers Adaptive Optimization, Remote Copy, System Reporter (External and On-node), HP 3PAR Priority Optimization and QoS (Quality of Service), and HP 3PAR Data Migration (migrating from HP 3PAR to HP 3PAR, EMC to HP 3PAR, and EMC to HP 3PAR). Hands-on lab exercises help illustrate the concepts learned. The two-day course is 60 percent lecture and 40 percent hands-on labs using HP 3PAR arrays.
