System Operator for IBM i [TDS_AS24G]

OVERVIEW

This course enables a new system operator to develop basic to intermediate level skills needed for day-to-day operations of IBM i. Specifically, the course explains how to:

• Use the online help and references
• Send, display, and reply to messages
• Monitor and control jobs, devices, and job and output queues 
• Start and stop the system
• Create and change user profiles
• Use authorization lists and group profiles
• Manage system configuration
• Save and restore objects, libraries, and the system
• Monitor job and history logs
• Diagnose a system problem
• Order, receive, and apply PTFs 
• Perform all of these functions using a 5250 emulation session as well as IBM i Access Client Solutions and IBM Navigator for i

Hands-on exercises reinforce the lecture topics and prepare the student to successfully operate an IBM Power environment that runs IBM i.

Virtual Learning

This interactive training can be taken from any location, your office or home and is delivered by a trainer. This training does not have any delegates in the class with the instructor, since all delegates are virtually connected. Virtual delegates do not travel to this course, Global Knowledge will send you all the information needed before the start of the course and you can test the logins.

OBJECTIVES

On completion participants will be able to:

• Send, display, and respond to messages
• Use the on-line help and reference material
• Monitor and control job queues, active jobs and output queues
• Create and change User Profiles
• Use authorization lists and group profiles
• Start and Stop the Operating System
• Manage system devices, user display stations and printers S
• ave and restore objects and libraries Monitor job and history logs
• Diagnose System problems Order, receive and install PTFs.

AUDIENCE

Those who have responsibility for daily system operations. It is not intended for technical audiences who are seeking an in-depth look at how the iSeries 400 system works.
