IBM Storage Scale Remote Data Access (Digital version)

Course overview

This course includes information on various Storage Scale features that enable remote access to data that is stored in a cluster file system.

Enterprises are creating, analyzing and keeping more data than ever before. An organization’s underlying storage must support new-era big data and artificial intelligence workloads along with traditional applications while ensuring security, reliability and high performance. IBM Storage Scale meets these challenges as a high-performance solution for managing data at scale.

This course is intended for IT professionals tasked with administering a Storage Scale storage cluster consisting of Linux nodes. The course includes information on various Storage Scale features that enable remote access to data that is stored in a cluster file system. This includes: multi-cluster support, clustered NFS, cluster export services (CES) and protocol support (NFS, SMB, and Object), Active File Management (AFM), and AFM-based Asynchronous Disaster Recovery (AFM DR). The features are described in lecture materials and implemented in lab exercises.

Who should attend

This lecture and exercise-based course is for individuals who want to configure a Spectrum Scale cluster to allow remote data access.
