Red Hat Enterprise Performance Tuning

Red Hat Enterprise Performance Tuning (RH442) is designed to teach senior Linux system administrators the methodology of performance tuning. This course discusses system architecture with an emphasis on understanding the implications of system architecture on system performance, performance adjustments, open source benchmarking utilities, networking performance, and tuning configurations for specific application loads.

Implementing an IBM b-type SAN with 8 Gbps Directors and Switches

This IBM® Redbooks® publication, written at a Data Center Fabric Manager v10.1.4 and Fabric Operating System v6.4.x level, consolidates critical information while also covering procedures and tasks that you are likely to encounter on a daily basis when implementing an IBM b-type SAN.

implement IBM storage V7000 7.2

This IBM® Redbooks® publication is a detailed technical guide to the IBM System Storage® SAN V olume Controller Version 7.2. SAN Volume Controller is a virtualization appliance solution, which maps virtualized volumes that are visible to hosts and applications to physical volumes on storage devices. Each server within the storage area network (SAN) has its own set of virtual storage addresses that are mapped to physical addresses. If the physical addresses change, the server continues running by using the same virtual addresses that it had before. Therefore, volumes or storage can be added or moved while the server is still running. The IBM virtualization technology improves the management of information at the “block” level in a network, which enables applications and servers to share storage devices on a network. This book is intended for readers who must implement the SAN Volume Controller at a 7.2 release level with minimal effort.
