The Cisco SAN Practitioner (NIL-DCIMDS) v1.0 is 1-day training that gives you an overview of Cisco MDS 9000 Series Multilayer Switches, including software features, management capabilities, migration options to MDS 9000 family and licensing options available for Cisco MDS 9000 and Cisco Cisco Data Center Network Manager (DCNM). You will learn the key features that contribute to high performance and availability, flexibility, and operational simplicity and investment protection.

During the course, you will also watch several demo videos on how to use Cisco DCNM and Cisco MDS 9000 basic features and advanced features such as Smart Zoning, Streaming and Telemetry, SAN Insights and Slow-drain Analysis. Using the SAN Insights feature, you will learn how to monitor SAN metrics, view health score, identify communication paths and troubleshoot SAN networks by identifying bottlenecks of your SAN network. You’ll gain a technical understanding of how to build scalable storage networks, or migrate existing Brocade SAN networks to the robust, flexible hardware architecture with network and storage management intelligence.
After you have successfully passed the final test, you will receive the certificate of completion.
