Course Description
This course provides product fundamentals and tasks necessary to size and implement in-system and remote
replication for Hitachi TagmaStore® Adaptable Modular Storage, Hitachi TagmaStore® Workgroup Modular
Storage and Hitachi Thunder 9500™ V modular storage systems.
Participants are introduced to Hitachi ShadowImage™ In-System Replication software, Hitachi Copy-on-Write
Snapshot software (formerly QuickShadow) and Hitachi TrueCopy™ Remote Replication software, followed by
details on software specifications and theory of operations. The participants will be able to describe corrective
actions by troubleshooting the given case scenarios.
The course discusses the use of RAID Manager as a VSS provider, ISCSI configuration and replication with
ShadowImage, Wide Area Network configurations, deployment considerations and WAN integration features, as
well as TrueCopy Extended Distance specifications, configurations and commands.
The classroom sessions are supported by lab exercises where the participants will learn to design, install,
configure and implement replication software running on specific Hitachi Data Systems storage platforms.
