Who should attend
This intermediate course is intended for system administrators or anyone implementing and managing an AIX operating system in a multiuser Power Systems partitioned environment.
Prerequisites
You should already be able to:
- Log in to an AIX system and set a user password

- Manage files and directories
- Use the vi editor
- Use redirection, pipes, and tees
- Use the utilities find and grep

Course Content
Learn to install, customize, and administer the AIX operating system in a multiuser Power Systems partitioned environment.
