Do you need to learn about the architecture
associated with z/OS data storage devices
that includes the media characteristics of
current Direct Access Storage Device (DASD)
and tape subsystems? In this entry-level
course, look at how data is stored on
traditional DASD (3380's and 3390's) and how
traditional DASD concepts are emulated in
today's array disk technology (specifically,
the Enterprise Storage Server). Also,
examine the flow of an Input/Output (I/O)
operation and how concepts, such as caching,
remote mirroring, and point-in-time backups
work. Review the current tape subsystems and
how data is stored in a Virtual Tape Server.
Learn the prerequisite information you need
for further training in specialized areas,
such as storage administration, storage
subsystem configuration, and system
measurement and tuning.

Skills Taught
|
|
|
- Identify the concepts of Redundant Array of
Independent Disks (RAID) technology and understand the
fundamental difference between traditional DASD and
Array DASD
- Describe the tape media and data
recording mechanisms used in the current generation of
tape technology
- Correlate data set formats and
organization with supported access methods and media
-
Trace the flow of an I/O request through operating the
components of the storage subsystem and identify
system and potential performance bottlenecks
-
Discuss the effect of cache, DASD fast write, and
write penalties on the response time of an I/O
operation
- Specify characteristics of data that
exploit hardware features, such as cache, remote
mirroring, and point-in-time backups
