Get on eBay, buy a few cheap servers, some fibre cards, a Brocade SAN switch, an old IBM DS3400 or something, and do some zoning and masking, create some LUNs, present them, stick on CV....

Are these storage roles a case of being promoted within a company and learn from there ?

Sorry, I couldn't resist
On a serious note, do you have zero experience or trying to move from another role?
