Overview

The Instructor-led Brocade SAN Troubleshooting course provides students with the technical skills needed to perform data collection and further troubleshooting tasks on switched and routed SANs based on Brocade Gen7 and Fabric OS versions 8.x and 9. X. The lectures cover the main concepts with an eye to the detailed study of the important points of the theory and the implementation of practical tasks. The systematization of knowledge about the processes taking place in factories, as well as the study of the available Brocade tools, will allow you to further use the acquired skills to analyze productive environments and develop mechanisms for timely response and elimination of problematic components of storage networks.

For T-SAN-001 course participants, the Brocade SAN Certified Support Engineer TSAN-Exam is included in the tuition fee.
