IT environments are characterized by the coexistence of many different platforms (hardware, middleware, and operating systems) and numerous applications (commercial off-the-shelf and custom) that run on these platforms. Multi-OS refers to this heterogeneous landscape, which is a reality for most HP customers. This landscape will continue to exist into the foreseeable future.

The operating systems in current use are evolving and growing according to the industry analyst community. These operating systems on Integrity servers provide value for large enterprises, especially those requiring up to 100% application availability or security. HP management tools simplify the complexity of working within this heterogeneous landscape. HP System Insight Manager (HP SIM) for systems level management and HP OpenView for enterprise and service-level management provide the common integrated toolset to manage operating systems and application environments.

Before taking this course, you must have previously installed an operating system or an HP PA-RISC, AlphaServer, or ProLiant platform or have equivalent experience.
