This course guides learners through managing a PowerFlex System, picking up where implementation finishes, and continuing through administration to sustain operations. Deployment of production cluster components using both configuration text files and Templates/Resource Groups are discussed. It covers managing PowerFlex components such as MDM, SDS, SDC, and volumes. Further management activities such as user configuration and alerting are also covered. Labs, demonstrations, and simulations complete the learning experience.
