About this course
This course develops practical capability in Storage Performance. Its course-specific content covers Measurement, Path analysis, Tuning, Investigation, followed by an applied project focused on find and explain a storage performance bottleneck. The lessons include concrete configuration, design, testing or operational decisions appropriate to the subject.
Who this is for
Administrators, developers and practitioners who work with Storage Performance or plan to take on responsibilities in this area.
Before you start
Working knowledge of storage & backup technologies and practical familiarity with the named platform or subject. Review the course topics before enrolment to confirm the lab starting point.
Find and explain a storage performance bottleneck
Deliver find and explain a storage performance bottleneck. Use the module outcomes to state requirements, demonstrate a working result, test an expected failure or boundary case, and document assumptions and follow-up work.
Course content
Course-specific syllabus and practical exercises. Lab release, access arrangements and final delivery scope are confirmed before enrolment.
01Measurement
+
- Latency, IOPS, throughput and queue depth
- Workload shape and measurement windows
Practical exerciseApply measurement to the find and explain a storage performance bottleneck and capture the validation evidence.
02Path analysis
+
- Host, fabric, controller and media layers
- Multipath and queueing evidence
Practical exerciseApply path analysis to the find and explain a storage performance bottleneck and capture the validation evidence.
03Tuning
+
- Cache and tiering behavior
- Safe changes to workload and queue settings
Practical exerciseApply tuning to the find and explain a storage performance bottleneck and capture the validation evidence.
04Investigation
+
- Collect a baseline and identify contention
