Key Strengths

  • Led high-severity AIX performance incident triage using UNIX performance tools; identified zombie/parent process resource issues and executed recovery via reboot
  • Built automated hourly health/threshold monitoring with shell + Jenkins email alerts across servers
  • IBM Power migration execution (P8 to P10) including firmware updates, VIOS setup, virtual networking, and LPAR cutover planning
  • Hands-on storage migration execution including WWN changes and SAN cutover coordination
  • Cloud/hybrid AIX migration delivery using mksysb-to-cloud deployment plus rsync final sync; also used GLVM async replication based on downtime constraints
  • Built and validated PowerHA 7.2 two-node active/passive cluster with manual and automatic failover testing (network disable, clRGmove/smitty)
