Veritas Cluster Server 5.0 for Solaris, Managing Multiple Clusters and Global Clustering
The VCS 5.0 for Solaris, Managing Multiple Clusters and Global Clustering course is designed for the IT professional tasked with managing, configuring, and using VCS clusters in an enterprise environment where there is a need to extend to multiple clusters and multiple sites. This three-day, instructor-led, hands-on class covers how to configure secure clusters, establish centralized management of multiple clusters, and manage multisite environments. Students will also learn how to configure campus clusters and global clusters for disaster recovery purposes, and understand how VCS can be used in virtual environments. Note that this course does not teach basic clustering concepts and is a followon course from the Veritas Cluster Server 5.x for Solaris course.
