Jackmeadow,

that prooves that you have at least all the soft skills you need for being a sysadmin - Now we have to work on the technical skills )

If you don't know it already, have a look here:
ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/systems/p...ix/AIX_Movies/

a bunch of very good tutorials on virtualization, hardware, vio and similar things.

You will probably know the redbooks already, so the only thing you can do now is get a cheap box and do it ...

Kind regards
