AIX Online Test

AIX (Advanced Interactive eXecutive) is a series of proprietary UNIX operating systems developed and sold by IBM for several of its computer platforms. It extends support to the IBM system i, system/370 mainframes, PS/2, and Apple network server.  It is typically used for enterprise servers and comes with a robust set of security options. IBM AIX allows the system administrator to divide the memory, CPU, and disk access between various jobs.

The IBM AIX online test (AIX 6.1 & 7.1) helps tech recruiters and hiring managers to assess candidates’ administrative skills to install and configure AIX operating systems and servers. The test is created & validated by experienced industry experts to assess & hire job-fit AIX admins as per industry standards. The AIX skills test enables employers and recruiters to identify potential AIX administrators as it evaluates the practical knowledge of candidates by including scenario/case study based questions in the assessment.
