Title: HACMP - Where to get started Post by: Michael on January 24, 2007, 08:54:11 AM Quote Topic: HACMP - Where to get started Posted by: TonyM ® 01/18/2007, 20:11:48 Author Profile | Post Reply | Alert | Recommend | Current page | Edit | Main Forum I would like to start learning HACMP, and hope to take a class at end of March. However, I would like to start reading and experimenting now. Unfortunately, I really do not have any HA experience, aside from having a high level understanding of its job and purpose. I was hoping some of you could suggest a specific redbook, or know of any other resource where I could start reading up on HACMP to get a beginners understanding of it. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

I found it very helpful. Cheers Title: Re: HACMP - Where to get started Post by: Michael on January 25, 2007, 04:28:53 PM Thanks Odi.
HACMP relies very heavily on your knowldge of IP and AIX logical volume management. So, be familiar with IP network addressing, netmasks, and aliasing. And it is useful, for your understanding, if you know how to create and modify volume groups and logical partitions from the command line. Also, study command importvg. HACMP relies heavily on the behavior of importvg for onlining and synchronizing ODM information. |
