About this class

Students in this course will learn about the new Workload Partitions (WPAR) feature of AIX 6. Interactive, live demonstrations will reinforce the lecture and give the students the ability to experience the interfaces used to exploit the new features. Students will obtain the knowledge required to implement workload partitions, and be aware of the differences between managing a WPAR compared with a traditional AIX instance.

This workshop is the first in a series of two 1-day workshops, for more information on the second workshop visit ANW02GB .
