Virtualization
Process Control DCS Specialists may be responsible for implementing virtualization solutions, managing virtualized infrastructure, developing, and maintaining virtualization documentation, conducting virtualization security assessments and upgrading and scaling virtualized infrastructure. By performing these tasks effectively, they help to ensure that control systems are reliable, secure, and scalable.
Process Control DCS Specialists may be responsible for implementing virtualization solutions for control systems. This involves creating virtual machines (VMs) that can run control system software and processes. Virtualization can help to improve system reliability, scalability, and maintenance.
Process Control DCS Specialists may be responsible for managing virtualized infrastructure, including VMs, virtual networks, and virtual storage. This involves monitoring system performance, configuring virtualization settings, and troubleshooting issues related to virtualized infrastructure.
Process Control DCS Specialists may be responsible for developing and maintaining documentation related to virtualization solutions and infrastructure. This documentation should outline system configurations, virtualization settings, and procedures for maintaining and troubleshooting virtualized infrastructure.
Process Control DCS Specialists may be responsible for conducting security assessments of virtualized infrastructure to ensure that control system data and processes are secure. This involves identifying potential vulnerabilities and implementing security measures to protect against threats.
As control systems evolve and expand, Process Control DCS Specialists may be responsible for upgrading and scaling virtualized infrastructure to meet changing demands. This involves adding new VMs, expanding virtual storage, and upgrading virtualization software to support new control system requirements.
