5 Agenda Introduction to Oracle VM Virtualizing Oracle EBS with Oracle VM POC Project Infrastructure Migrating Oracle EBS & Creating Templates Oracle EBS High Availability on VM Q&A 5 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

6 Introduction to Oracle VM Oracle VM Server: Xen Hypervisor, management domain dom0 Linux kernel with support of devices, IO, networking, etc. VM: guest OS with applications running on domu Server partition: multiple guest VMs run independently on a VM server VM template: is a copy of a virtual machine that can be used to create a new VM. VM Server Pool: an autonomous region of VM servers. VM Servers in a VM server pool share Pool: an autonomous storage to provide high availability VM can be failed or live migrated to other VM server of the same VM server 6 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

7 Introduction to Oracle VM Management: VM Manager and Enterprise Manager Oracle VM3.o released in August, New Oracle VM Manager provides centralized management Scalability: up to 160 physical CPUs, 2 TB of memory 128 virtual CPUs and 1TB memory per guest VM Application Driven Virtualization: VM template based applications deployment 7 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

8 Introduction to Oracle VM VM Server Pool and VM Repository HA enabled in server pool and VM level Fail over and live migration of VM to other VM server. All the VM servers in the VM server pool share storage Shared storage: based on OCFS2/NFS-based for VM Repository. VM Repository (OVM2.x): root: /OVS/ running_pool: VM images; seed_pool: VM templates shared_disks: virtual storage VM Repository (OVM 3.x): root:/ovs/repisitries/xxxxxxxxxxxxxx virtualmachines: virtual machines; templates: VM templates virtualdisks: virtual disks storages; Assemblies: VM Assemblies Guest VM creation Paravirtualization and Hard Virtualization Create VM from a VM template using VM manager Create VM from an install tree using virt-install 8 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

9 Virtualizing Oracle EBS with Oracle VM Virtualizing Oracle EBS with Oracle VM Two VMs: Apps tier VM and DB tier VM: Benefits of Virtualizing Oracle EBS with Oracle VM Server partitions and consolidation High availability and scalability Deployment standardization Fast deployment Dramatically reduced cloning time Certification of Oracle E-Business Suite on Oracle VM: Oracle EBS is certified to run on Oracle VM 2 and VM & later : Metalink note: and Steven Chan: Release 11i Oracle Applications CU2 or later with 1i.ATG_PF.H.RUP5 Oracle Database or later Release 12 Applications R12 with Oracle E-Business Suite Release Update Pack RUP2 (patch ) or later Oracle Database or later 9 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

10 Virtualizing Oracle EBS with Oracle VM Oracle VM Templates for Oracle E-Business Suite Templates for two virtual machines: EBS Apps VM and EBS DB VM Oracle EBS VM template: removed instance specific information Downloadable templates for Oracle EBS , VM template for Database tier VM: Vision demo DB VM template for Applications tier VM: Vision Demo instance Oracle E-Business Virtualization Toolkit: What is virtualization toolkits? Why do we need it? The components of the virtualization toolkit: patch ebiz_1211_reconfig.sh, ebiz_1211_cleanup.sh Related Metalink documents: [ ], [ ] Related Metalink documents: [ ], [ Oracle OpenWorld 2012

11 Virtualizing Oracle EBS with Oracle VM How to leverage Oracle VM for Oracle EBS Environment Need to establish Oracle EBS environment on VMs But how? the process to create VMs and VM templates? Fresh Install EBS on VMs, then build the template Use the Oracle EBS template from Oracle Migrate Oracle EBS from physical to virtual Process of Migrating Oracle EBS to Virtual environment Streamline process,no fresh installation needed Preserve all the business data/logic, setups and customization Migrating the existing EBS instance to virtual environment After the migration, we can: Create new EBS templates based on the migrated VMs Create new EBS instances using on the VM templates New way to deploy new EBS instance 11 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

12 Virtualizing Oracle EBS with Oracle VM Leverage Oracle E-Business Suite Template from Oracle Oracle EBS VMs created from the template: Include OS configuration for Oracle EBS (APPS and DB) Include Oracle E-Business Visualization Toolkit but it has not business data and customization and setups Combine EBS VM templates with Clone of EBS on physical system VMs configuration + EBS VM toolkit from VM templates Business data, customization and setups from physical system 12 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

13 Virtualizing Oracle EBS with Oracle VM Migration Process Design: Starting with downloaded Oracle EBS VIS VM Templates Build Oracle EBS VMs from the EBS VIS VM templates Replacing APPS and DB with the cloned copy from DEV(physical) Reconfigure and forms Oracle EBS DEV Instance VMs Create the new DEV VM template Create new EBS VMs from the DEV VM template 13 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

14 POC Project Infrastructure Joint POC Project between Dell Solution Engineering and IT Develop a solution to migrate EBS from physical to VM Establish the VM template based EBS Instance deployment for on-going Oracle EBS implementation project POC servers and shared storage infrastructure Physical Environment: Oracle E-Business Suite x86-64 bit APPs tier: Dell PE 2950 running Oracle Enterprise Linux 5U3 Database Tier: Dell PE 6950, Oracle Enterprise Linux 5U Virtual Infrastructure: Oracle VM servers: 2 x Dell PowerEdge R810 Shared SAN storage: Dell EqualLogic PS6510 Storage, allocated 2TB for VM repository VM Manager: 1 Dell PE2950 running VM Manager 14 Oracle OpenWorld 2012

46 Summary 1. Use Oracle VM template to create VMs for Vision instance 2. Clone EBS Apps and DB from development Instance 3. Reconfigure VMs to form the clone of the development instance 4. Create the new VM template based on the development instance. 5. Create the new development and test EBS instances on VM environment using the new VM templates 6. Live Migration and Fail Over of Oracle EBS on Oracle VM 7. Special Thanks to the support of Oracle EBS on Oracle VM Team: Ivo Dujmovic and Noby Joseph in Oracle Corporation References: 1.
