System Management Methods

System Management of OpenVMS is more than just knowing and using a bunch of DCL commands and system management utilities.

An OpenVMS system manager executes the commands or uses utilities for a purpose; to maintain and improve user access to services on the computer. Knowing DCL well will help, but DCL alone will not do the job. The effective system manager needs to know how to prepare and maintain the OpenVMS system to maximize user access to computer services. This course teaches the student-system-manager some of the techniques for maximizing the availability of computer services available to users.

The student accounts on the CCSS Interactive Learning lab systems are live, fully privileged, OpenVMS environments to allow the student to develop their skills and practice their techniques.

Some topics covered are:

• Identifying computer management objectives
• Managing users and user accounts
• Managing disks and data
• Managing clusters
• Managing security
• Remote access, management and maintenance

OBJECTIVE:

Develop the skills necessary for effective management of an OpenVMS environment.

WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS COURSE:

Anyone who needs to develop the skills of day to day management of OpenVMS; new system managers, system manager with experience on other systems, system managers looking for a refresher, and operators looking to expand their skills and become system managers.
