Lynda - Linux System Engineer: iSCSI Storage Area Networks
https://www.lynda.com/Linux-tutorials/RHCE-Cert-Prep-iSCSI-Storage-Area-Networks/716061-2.html
Become a Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE). The RHCE certification demonstrates expert-level competence with Red Hat Enterprise Linux and is considered the benchmark for Linux administrators. This course covers objectives related to iSCSI—the standard protocol for linking a storage area network (SAN) on Linux. Instructor Grant McWilliams provides an overview of iSCSI and related terminology, including targets, initiators, LUNs, backstores, and iSCSI addressing. He shows how to configure iSCSI target and initiator packages, create a backstore, enable access with an access control list (ACL), discover and log into targets, partition and format target drives, and prepare them for automatic mounting. Finally, he demonstrates how to remove targets and backstores and configure iSCSI LUN (logical unit number) storage.
Lynda - Linux System Engineer: Network Filesystems Using NFS and Samba
Become a Red Hat Certified Engineer (RHCE). The RHCE certification demonstrates expert-level competence with Red Hat Enterprise Linux and is considered the benchmark for Linux administrators. This course covers objectives related to network filesystems and file sharing. Instructor Grant McWilliams introduces Network File System (NFS), the standard used by virtually every Linux and Unit distribution, and shows how to configure an NFS server. He creates a simple NFS share, providing a brief overview of NFS security and its interaction with SELinux, and then shows how to mount the share from a client computer. Then he reviews the same techniques with Samba, an SMB file and print sharing stack for non-Microsoft operating systems. There are two chapters of hands-on exercises that allow you to practice your skills with NFS and Samba, including creating shares for group collaboration.
