Making them do it One or more virtual machines Starting state similar to what they have on their system Detailed instructions4IBM Software Group | Security Division 2013 IBM Corp. 5. The starting state Similar to the performance context The system the customer uses in real life Simplified No redundancy unless that is an objective Not production-ready Software already installed Unless installing it is an objective Instructions for creating the starting state go in the setup guide Take a snapshot before starting the exercises 5IBM Software Group | Security Division 2013 IBM Corp. 6.
