AIX Training : Fundamentals of IBM AIX: Getting Started

This course teaches the basic working environment of an IBM AIX system. It introduces commonly required operations that can be performed by entering commands interactively in a command window, along with functions available in the Common Desktop Environment (CDE). This course is taught for all supported IBM AIX hardware platforms.

AIX Training Prerequisites

This course is considered to be the basic Unix / IBM AIX course. Experience with any (other) interactive system is helpful

AIX Training Course duration

This course normally requires four (4) days, approximately 50% lecture and 50% lab time.

AIX Training Course Objectives

Each participant will be able to use Korn Shell techniques and commands to maintain collections of files; create files using interactive editor utilities; create and execute basic command scripts, communicate with other users, and tailor the interactive environment to meet their needs. Environment control using the CDE graphical utilities will also be shown.
