NonStop™ X BladeSystems and prepares you to
operate and manage them. Server architecture,
configuration and operations are compared and
contrasted between NonStop™ X and NonStop™ i
(NB-Series) servers. The course is a combination of
lecture, live demonstrations and exercises using HPE
Integrity NonStop™ X BladeSystems.
