Ensure participants understand that the course is split into self‐study/reference and ILT/VILT
segments. The pre‐assessment and self‐study modules should have been completed prior
to the ILT/VILT classroom event.
The ILT/VILT content focuses on utilizing simulators for the EqualLogic Group Manager user
interface, cabling exercises, break‐fix tasks and the post‐assessment/certification.

Ensure the participants are well aware of the expectations for self‐study tasks and usage of
reference content during service calls as on‐demand onsite reference material.
Ensure the participants are well aware that they will be tested on all break/fix and
installation/deployment tasks regardless of role.

Explain to the participants that although many of the topics covered throughout this course
fall outside of the scope of responsibility, they are provided with the intent of providing
additional information to improve general knowledge and the ability to speak and
understand basic EqualLogic terminology in order to improve overall customer
satisfaction. Some of these topics are also useful if the field service representative is
required to provide any advanced tasks while onsite during tethered operations with Dell
EqualLogic PS series support.
Inform the participants that their primary goal is to provide a great customer experience.
They should be knowledgeable of the EqualLogic PS series product line and be able to
talk to the associated technologies and relay a sense of confidence to the customer.

Purpose:
The Dell EqualLogic PS Series Sales Demo Tool is For Demonstration Purposes ONLY.
This tool allows demonstrations of PS Series array functionality on a laptop or PC. It
uses virtual machine technology. Please note that since the demo tool is for
Demonstration Purposes ONLY, it has no High Availability features. Any disk failures,
power failures, or virtual host system restarts that are not preceded by a shutdown
of the PS demo array (using the CLI or GUI) could require that you reset or
reconfigure the demo array.
