2 Computer hardware virtualization (or hardware virtualization) is the virtualization of computers or operating systems. It hides the physical characteristics of a computing platform from users, instead showing another abstract computing platform. At its origins, the software that controlled virtualization was called a "control program", but nowadays the terms "hypervisor" or "virtual machine monitor" are preferred.

3 Achieving the Last Mile of Virtualization in 2008, 25 percent of x86 workloads were virtualized; today, that figure is estimated to be 60 percent. - Paul Maritz, VMworld Keynote, Day 1, August 2012 Virtualizing the first 1/3 of infrastructure is relatively easy Virtualizing the last 1/3 requires handling business critical applications Complexity Storage costs Availability Security Performance Entornos Virtuales SYMANTEC VISION

4 What are your problems? According to well known research institutes 40% of all downtimes are attached to failure in applications. Most of the native failover support of virtualized environments is linked to the failure of the virtual machine Virtualizing business critical applications require a greater level of security, performance and HA/DR Entornos Virtuales SYMANTEC VISION

5 Some questions we need to ask ourselves What percentage of my environment we had virtualized today? How many business critical applications we do have virtualized (SAP, SQL, Oracle, etc.)? How we are keeping the business critical applications in virtual environments highly available? What are the SLAs? Are we meeting them? Does we have multi-tiered applications? How we are managing them? What challenges we are facing around storage availability? How we are handling storage performance, visibility and availability in our VMware environment?

20 Barriers to Clustering inside the Guest for higher levels of High Availability Shared SCSI RDMs are typically required for cluster across ESX hosts ( EagerZeroThick are the supported disk types for shared storage Complex management and visibility inside vcenter 1. When DRS affinity/anti-affinity rules are used. See HA/DRS specific configuration for clustered virtual machines below for details. 2. See additional considerations for shared disk configurations below. 3. Supported in Cluster in a Box "CIB" configurations only. See Considerations for Shared Storage Clustering below for details.

21 Using the VMware Hot Plug API & Veritas Cluster Server to control VM access to storage Controlled VM access via Veritas Cluster Server Enable vmotion, HA & DRS etc.. Utilize Hot Disk API for attaching disks Wider support of disk types available incl RDM Cluster controls access and has better guard against splitbrain. Easy transfer of operational knowledge to virtual environments. VM1 SQL VCS ESXi 1 VM1 Boot SQL Data Private Links VM2 SQL ESXi 2 Shared Datastore VCS VM2 Boot Entornos Virtuales SYMANTEC VISION

22 Using the power of VCS to control VM access to storage Graceful Switchover: Inicia se el processo haciendo com que la aplicacion SQL corriendo en VM se vá a offline se hace el shutdown desde el topo de la arvore de recursos - por ejemplo SQL instances seran offline por primeiro despues virtual server name, NIC y sus IP s y finalmente lo disco de datos VMDK es detachado de VM1. Detach Data Disks Offline SQL VM1 SQL ESXi 1 Private Links Online SQL VM2 SQL ESXi 2 Attach Data Disks to VM2 La orden reversa es ejecutada en VM2, the data disk VMDK is attached to VM2 y sos otros recursos van a online y finalmente mas que nada la instancia SQL instance si sube y la aplicacion está disponible para su opracion normal. VM1 Boot SQL Data Shared Datastore VM2 Boot Este cambio es muy rapido y en la maioria de los casos leva menos de 1 minuto. Entornos Virtuales SYMANTEC VISION

23 Operational Scenarios : ESX fault (with VMHA enabled) ESX Fault: (with VMHA enabled) Quando lo ESX fallar VMHA la move para ESX3, VCS en la VM2 percibe (heartbeat) y enpeza a colocar la aplicação SQL on line. VCS por su lado espera hasta que el VM HA registre el disco em ESX3 antes de hacier el detach de VM1 Enquanto la aplicacion está indo en linea em VM2, VM1 se inicia. Una vez que VCS se inicia em VM1 y percibe que la aplicacion está on line en VM2 VCS hace con que la aplicacion en VM1 se quede en stand by, haciendo asy que tengamos ahora una alta disponibilidade no caso de falla em VM2 Detach Data Disks VM Registration via VMware HA VM1 Boot SQL Data Entornos Virtuales SYMANTEC VISION VM1 SQL ESXi 3 VM1 SQL ESXi 1 Private Links VM2 Shared Datastore Online SQL SQL ESXi 2 VM2 Boot Attach Data Disks to VM2 23

O que sucede es que ESX1 no consigue hacier la remocion de los discos de VM1 pois el nodo esta activo El recurso VMwareDisk hace una consulta y no puede ganar el lock de lo disco de datos. El status quo es mantenido y la aplicacion continua a funcionar en VM1 permanecendo offline en VM2 VM1 SQL ESXi 1 VM1 Boot SQL Data Private Links Shared Datastore Active Node Down?
