Course overview

The Managing HPE Primera Storage I course provides an overview of the HPE Primera portfolio. The course reviews how to perform common day-to-day management tasks with hands-on labs (HOL), including creating the right data efficient volumes on an all-flash HPE Primera array, and leveraging the power of HPE InfoSight.
The course prepares learners for deeper follow-on training from HPE, including the 2-day, HM9Q6S: Managing HPE Primera II course.
