Course Code:	IN 1009
Course Abstract:	This course teaches the operational tasks involved in maintaining a WebSphere Portal Server environment. This course focuses specifically on the advanced configuration required to support a cluster of WebSphere Portal servers. Rather than simply working with a basic installation throughout the entire course, participants are shown how to accomplish the tasks that will be required in a production-scale WebSphere Portal deployment. Participants will initially work separately so they become familiar with administrative tasks and then will work together to create a horizontal Portal cluster.
Audience:	This course is designed for individuals who are administrators who are responsible for installing and maintaining a WebSphere Portal Server based web site.
Duration:	5 days
Learning Outcomes:	Upon completion of this course, the participant will be able to: > Plan for a portal installation > Install portal, including silent installation > Create a customized look and feel > Install new portlet applications > Configure Portal composite applications > Add portlets to pages and change page layout > Configure security using LDAP > Migrate portal configuration databases to an external database > Resolve most common problems > Perform basic performance tuning > Create multiple virtual portals > Use Web Content Management to maintain the web site
