This introductory course enables a new system operator to develop basic to intermediate level skills needed for day-to-day operations of IBM i. Focus is given to using the GUI (IBM i Access Client Solutions and IBM Navigator for i) as well as 5250 emulation sessions to perform tasks including job control, monitoring, sending messages, managing systems devices, and more. Hands-on exercises reinforce the lecture topics and prepare the student to successfully operate IBM i.
Who Can Benefit
This course is designed for someone who is responsible for IBM i system operations on a daily basis.
It is not intended for technical audiences who are seeking an in-depth look at IBM i system administration. This audience should instead attend the IBM i System Administration course (OL19G).
