Students in this course will learn how to implement advanced IBM PowerVM features, such as Active Memory Expansion, shared dedicated processors and multiple shared processor pools. Students will also be exposed to new availability and performance management features such as Simplified Remote Restart, Hybrid Network Virtualization and enhanced VIOS administration using the HMC. Additionally, students will learn skills to implement, measure, analyze and tune PowerVM virtualization features for optimal performance on IBM Power servers. This course focuses on two main areas. First, the features that relate to the performance of IBM Power servers, AIX, VIOS and the special monitoring, configuring, and tuning needs of logical partitions (LPARs). This course does not cover application monitoring and tuning. Second, the course will explore advanced features for availability and managing and monitoring virtualization and PowerVM virtualized workloads on IBM Power. Students will also learn AIX performance analysis and tuning tools that help an administrator take advantage of shared processors and other virtualization features of the IBM Power servers. Hands-on lab exercises reinforce each lecture and give the students practical experience.

This advanced course is for anyone responsible for implementing and managing virtualization features on a System p server including:

AIX technical support individuals
System administrators
Systems engineers
System Architects

Describe the effect of the POWER6 virtualization features on performance and monitoring, such as:

Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT)
Micro-Partitioning
Multiple Shared Processor Pools (MSPP)
Shared dedicated capacity
Active Memory Sharing (AMS) and other virtualization features

Interpret the outputs of AIX 6.1performance monitoring and tuning tools used to view the impact of SMT, Micro-Partitioning, additional shared processor pool activations and device virtualization. The tools include:

vmstat
iostat
sar
topas
trace
curt
mpstat
lparstat
smtctl

List various sources of information and support related to AIX 6.1 performance tools, system sizing, system tuning, and AIX 6.1 enhancements and new features

Perform a Live Partition Mobility between two different POWER6 servers

Describe the New features available with the Virtual I/O Server version 2.1 and version 2.2 such as:

N_port ID Virtualization
Heterogeous Multi-threading
Virtual Tape devices
Active Memory sharing

Describe and implement the Active Memory Sharing feature
