WebSphere Training Overview
This three day course is intended for System Administrators who will be installing and tailoring WebSphere MQ V6 on the distributed platforms (Windows, AIX, UNIX, Sun Solaris, Linux, AS/400,…). Most of the course contents also apply to other platforms such as z/OS, Tandem and VSE. The students learn how to install WebSphere MQ, set up Queue Managers, define and manage Queues, Message Channels, Distributed Queuing, Clusters and learn the basic problem determination techniques. The course also helps to prepare for the IBM WMQ Certification tests. It is using machine exercises specific to the Windows platform.
In addition to Windows the course and the machine exercises can be set up for the following platforms:
- WebSphere MQ V6 System Administration for Linux
- WebSphere MQ V6 System Administration for AIX (pSeries)
- WebSphere MQ V6 System Administration for Sun Solaris
- WebSphere MQ V6 System Administration for AS/400 (iSeries)
WebSphere Training Audience
System administrators responsible for the setup and maintenance of WebSphere MQ systems on AIX, Windows, UNIX, Sun Solaris or AS/400 platforms.
