IBM WebSphere Process Server V7.0 Problem Determination

In this five-day instructor-led course, students learn how to troubleshoot problems that may appear in an IBM WebSphere Process Server V7 environment.
To enable system administrators who work with WebSphere Process Server to be self-sufficient and effective in discovering and resolving runtime problems, this course teaches students how to use various problem isolation techniques. Many of the methodologies introduced in this course are also used by IBM consultants and IBM support teams to assist their customers.
The course begins with an introduction to the tools and techniques that are common to both WebSphere Application Server and WebSphere Process Server problem determination.It then goes on to cover other WebSphere problem determination topics, which include gathering and analyzing tracing data, troubleshooting problems with components such as WebSphere Adapters and the Business Process Choreographer, and using various problem determination tools that are available for WebSphere users. Since Java memory issues such as hung threads and out-of-memory can be crucial to runtime performance, Java memory management topics are also covered.
Hands-on lab exercises provided throughout the course reinforce the concepts learned in the lectures, and enable students to put their newly learned problem determination skills into practice.The exercises cover skills such as collecting data with the IBM Support Assistant, discovering whether the issue is with the Application Server or the Process Server, analyzing event messages, and troubleshooting problems with long-running business processes and Service Component Architecture (SCA) applications.
