Course overview

The Managing HPE 3PAR StoreServ I course is designed for the new or entry-level HPE 3PAR administrator. The goal of the class is to acquaint the 3PAR administrator with the most common day-to-day tasks and best actices ssociated with administration of the 3PAR array. The levels of provisioning storage are emphasized. This training reflects the newest release of the HPE StoreServ Management Console. The course is approximately 50% lecture and 50% hands-on labs using HPE 3PAR arrays. NOTE: Hosts used in the lab environment are MS Windows.
