Course Overview

The Dell EMC PowerStore Administration and Replication (ESSTGS08346) course is designed for IT professionals responsible for managing modern storage infrastructure, specifically preparing learners for the D-PST-OE-23 PowerStore Operate certification exam. This training targets roles such as Storage Administrators, Systems Engineers, and Implementation Engineers who manage day-to-day operations of PowerStore arrays. With over 20,000 new storage-related job openings emerging annually in the U.S. and 78% of enterprises demanding unified block, file, and VMware provisioning capabilities, expertise in PowerStore administration is highly sought after. The course equips participants with essential skills in system configuration, data protection, and replication management to meet real-world enterprise demands.

Participants engage directly with core PowerStore technologies including PowerStore Manager, Initial Configuration Wizard (ICW), ToR Ethernet switching, block and file storage provisioning, and VMware integration tools. Through hands-on labs conducted in a live PowerStore environment, students configure replication policies, manage host access, create volume groups, and perform failover operations. A key lab scenario involves setting up a complete replication workflow between two PowerStore systems—tagging replication ports, establishing remote connections, creating protection policies, and validating inbound replication data. These practical exercises simulate real production environments, ensuring learners gain operational proficiency in configuring metro volumes, asynchronous NAS replication, and vVol replication integrated with VMware SRM.

This course prepares candidates for the globally recognized Dell Technologies Proven Professional PowerStore Operate (D-PST-OE-23) certification, which validates critical skills in storage operations.
