Linux for AIX System Administrators

About this course

The course walks AIX administrators through the fundamentals of Linux system administration, covering the Linux file system layout, user and permission management, basic shell commands, and essential services on IBM Power hardware. It assumes you already know AIX, so you can focus on the differences and similarities between the two operating systems. Lessons are delivered as video lectures with hands‑on labs that let you practice common administrative tasks in a Linux environment. By the end you’ll be able to manage Linux systems alongside your existing AIX responsibilities.
