IBM Tivoli Netcool OMNIbus 8.1 Installation and Administration (TD-TN035modG)

This course is a combination of the traditional “Installation” and “Administration” courses (TN025 and TN035). It is designed for IBM Netcool/OMNIbus 8.1 administrators. It includes hands-on lab exercises that are based on a distributed deployment of Netcool/OMNIbus. You start with two images with Netcool/OMNIbus installed and deployed in a high-availability configuration. You use this environment to explore relevant administration topics and deploy advanced features. Note that product installation is not part of the labs in this class, however all important elements of the course “Netcool/OMNIbus 8.1 Installation and Configuration (TN025G)” are covered. In turn, some less important elements of the course TN035G are shortened.
