VERITAS Fibre Channel SAN Basics

 Course Description
    Course Outline/Details

Storage Area Networks (SAN) play a key role in modern, fast-paced, business environments. Storage on a Fibre Channel SAN is shared, resulting in centralized management, better utilization of disk and tape resources, and enhanced enterprise-wide data management and protection. This Web-based training course provides a basic introduction to the tools and knowledge needed to prepare to plan, design, and implement a SAN. This course relates the evolution of SAN technology, provides an overview of the architectural structure of the Fibre Channel protocol, and describes the various SAN topologies and their components. Finally, the course provides links to identify the key advantages, inherent terminology, and core architecture of VERITAS SAN solutions.

The overall goal of this learning experience is to provide a basic understanding of the concepts related to Storage Area Networking. This course will build the foundation on which to base more advanced courses on VERITAS SAN products.
