AIX Basics (Shell Programming and Report Generation)
AIX Training Overview
This course teaches the IBM AIX computer professional (user, systems
administrator, application/system programmer) the techniques
needed to develop advanced shell and reporting type procedures
under AIX. Techniques in the major shells will be shown. Note that
all Unix systems support all of the techniques in this course.
AIX Training Prerequisites
This is an advanced IBM AIX course. It is assumed that participants
either have attended the AIX Basics course, or have equivalent
experience with a Unix system.
AIX Training Course duration
This course normally requires three (3) days, approximately 50 %
lecture, and 50 % lab time.
AIX Training Course Objectives
Each student will be able to use AIX awk, nawk, Korn and
Bash shell features to maintain collections of files, control
usage of shell command scripts, and generate reports using the
(n)awk facility.
