Although you will be exposed to the various windowing platforms available in HP-UX, this course teaches UNIX at “the command line level” to develop a thorough understanding of the HP-UX operating environment.

The student learns how to navigate the HP-UX file systems and how to work with files, directories and permissions. The student will learn how to use the HP-UX editors “ex” and “vi. “ Once the student is comfortable with basic HP-UX commands, they’ll move onto advanced power tools as well as how to customize the POSIX Korn shell.

The classroom labs are run in a real-world UNIX environment, are structured to allow you to learn by doing, and are developed to simulate “real world” situations. The hands-on labs progressively build your HP-UX knowledge and command skills in a clear and concise manner.
