VNXe hands-on labs at EMC world

There are two VNXe Hands-on labs at the EMC World:

- HoL 10 VNXe Unisphere Administrator

- HoL 11 Remote Monitoring of Multiple VNXe Systems

I did the HoL 10 this morning where the objectives were to create CIFS server/share and also generic iSCSI server/datastore and then connect those to Windows VM. For someone who has been working with CIFS and generic iSCSI servers this might be already familiar topic. But for someone who has been only working with vSphere datastores on VNXe this is a good introduction to CIFS and generic iSCSI side of the VNXe

Other VNXe lab is introduction to the new Unisphere Remote, so if you haven’t seen it yet I recommend checking this lab out.

While I was at the lab I had a quick chat with Mike Gore from EMC who is responsible of the VNXe labs at the EMC World. I asked him why there wasn’t VNXe labs focusing on vSphere side and he mentioned that those could be available in future events and the current labs are more like introduction to VNXe.
