    Abstract

    This IBM® Redbooks® publication describes deployment, networking, and data

    management tasks on the IBM Power Virtual Server by using sample scenarios.

    The team during the content development used available documentation, IBM Power Virtual

    Server environment, and additional software and hardware resources to document several

    types of scenarios:

     Backup scenarios

     Disaster recovery scenarios

    This book addresses topics for IT architects, IT specialists, developers, sellers, and anyone

    who wants to implement and manage workloads on an IBM Power Virtual Server. Moreover,

    this publication provides documentation to transfer how-to skills to the technical teams, and

    solution guidance to the sales team. This book compliments the documentation available at
