Solaris Training Overview
This course teaches the basic working environment of a Solaris system.
It introduces commonly required operations that can be performed by
entering commands interactively in a command terminal, along with
functions available in the Java Desktop Environment (JDS). This
course is taught for the following platforms: Solaris 10 SPARC and
x86 / x64 platforms.
Solaris Training Prerequisites
This course is considered to be the basic Unix / Solaris 10 course.
Experience with any (other) interactive system is helpful.
Solaris Training Course duration
This course normally requires three (3) days, approximately 50%
lecture and 50% lab time.
Solaris Training Course Objectives
Each participant will be able to use Korn Shell techniques and
commands to maintain collections of files, create files using
interactive editor utilities, create and execute basic command
procedures, communicate with other users, and tailor the interactive
environment to meet their needs. Environment control using the JDS
graphical utilities will also be shown.
