FUJITSU Cloud IaaS Trusted Public S5 Modifying Virtual Resources This guide describes the process for modifying virtual resources on the IaaS Trusted Public S5 platform How to Modify a Virtual System A Virtual System can be modified by double clicking on the VSYS within System Manager, then selecting Reconfigure. The following modifications can be performed: Figure 1 - Virtual System Reconfiguration Button Changes to the Performance Type of a VM The Addition or Removal of a VM The Addition or Removal of Storage The Disconnection or Re-attachment of Storage The Addition or Removal of a Server Load Balancer, Changes to the Performance Type of a Firewall The Establishment or Removal of Internet or Intranet connections The Addition or Removal of Global IP Address Date: 17/11/2014 Page 1 of 14
Additional Option Area Configuration Map Area Property Area Changing a Virtual Machine Performance Type To change the Performance Type of a Virtual Machine (VM): Figure 2 Reconfiguration Screen Layout 1. From within the Reconfigure screen, select the VM within the Configuration Map area. 2. Select the Details tab in the Property area. 3. Choose the new VM type from the drop-down Type menu. Figure 3 - Virtual Machine Type Date: 17/11/2014 Page 2 of 14
A VM can be one of eight Types Economy, Standard, Advanced, High-Performance, Double High 15, Double-High Performance, Quad High 30 or Quad High Performance. VM specifications and performance increase via each option. Note: It is necessary to stop a VM, before the Performance Type of a VM can be modified. Users must check that the specification of the VM Type chosen, meets the minimum requirements for any OS / Application to be run on it. Add VMs / Load Balancers / Additional Disks The steps to add VMs, load balancers, and additional disks are described in the following procedures: Please note that when naming a VM, SLB or Additional disk, the following character restrictions apply: Maximum number of letters: Up to 256 one-byte or 85 two-byte characters Non-usable characters: [ ] (single quotation) and [ ] (double quotation) It is NOT possible to put the same names to VMs, SLBs, and additional disks within the same virtual system. Adding VMs Drag and Drop Figure 4 - Adding VMs Users can add VMs by dragging and dropping a VM icon from the Additional Option area to the Configuration Map area. Users can select the network segment (DMZ, SECURE1, or SECURE2) as a destination. Drop the icon into a target network segment on the Configuration Map area. The Add Virtual Network button can be used to add up to 8 additional Network cards to the VM, across all available Network segments. Once set, the network cards cannot be changed and will remain till the VM is returned. Date: 17/11/2014 Page 3 of 14
Figure 5 Add Virtual Network Interface Card 1. Use the up and down arrows to increase the Virtual Network Interface Card count across each subnet (up to a maximum of 8 NICs) 2. Click Ok to complete Add Load Balancers and Additional Disks. Drag and Drop Figure 6 - Adding Load Balancers and Disks Users can select and add Load Balancers from the Other tab that is in the Additional Option area. Load Balancers icons are dropped into the same network segment as the VMs. Additional Disks can also be selected from the same location, but disk icons are dropped onto the required target VM themselves. NOTE: It is necessary to stop the VM before an additional disk can be added to an existing VM. There are two types of Load Balancer to choose between, the standard performance Load Balancer, and the higher performance Turbo Load Balancer. It is not possible to change between performances types once deployed, although further Load Balancers can be added. Date: 17/11/2014 Page 4 of 14
To specify the size of the Additional Disk 1. Drag and Drop an Additional Disk onto the appropriate VM. 2. Select the VM with this Additional Disk within the Configuration Map area. 3. Choose the Additional Disk from the drop-down menu next to Name : in the Property area. 4. Move the sliding bar to determine the amount of storage required from 10GB to 10TB, smaller increments can be made with the Up/Down arrows. Configuration Map Area Figure 7 - Changing the size of an additional disk Users can only set the desired disk size before the Additional Disks are created. It is NOT possible to change the size of the disks once created. Note that some Operating Systems running within a VM are restricted in their capability in accessing attached Additional Disk size capacities greater than 2TB or other higher limits. Consult the Restrictions and Considerations section of the Portal for details of Operating Systems specifics. Addition of multiple Additional Disks which each meet the VM Operating System s maximum accessible capacity can be used to create the required disk storage capacity. Up to 14 additional disks can be added to each VM. Date: 17/11/2014 Page 5 of 14
Firewall Performance Type Change Figure 8 - Changing the Firewall Performance Type 1. Select the Firewall icon within the Configuration Map area. 2. Choose either Normal or Turbo from the drop-down menu next to Type : in the Property area. Firewall and Load Balancer Redundancy Outside of the reconfiguration screen, the Firewall and Load Balances can be made redundant, by selecting each and clicking Start from the normal VSYS Management Screen: Figure 9 Starting Firewall Redundancy Date: 17/11/2014 Page 6 of 14
Redundancy can be Stopped in the same way when required. Deleting VMs / Load Balancers / Additional Disks Figure 10 Starting Load Balancer Redundancy The steps to delete VMs, Load Balancers, and Additional Disks are described in the following sections. Note: A Firewall cannot be deleted. Deleting a VM When Users select the VM or Load Balancer, as well as the component information, a Delete button is displayed. Click the Delete button to delete a selected VM or Load Balancer. Figure 11- Deleting a VM A running VM or Load Balancer, must be stopped before it can be deleted. If a VM has an attached additional disk, then the portal will prompt to either delete the disk or keep it. Figure 12 - Deleting a VM Prompt Date: 17/11/2014 Page 7 of 14
If Delete only the Server is selected, the Disk will be become unattached and be able to be reattached to another VM within the same VSYS, at a later time via drag and drop. Deleting Additional Disks Only Figure 13 Detached Additional Disk 1. Select the VM which has the Additional Disk to be deleted. 2. Choose the disk to delete from the drop-down menu in the Property area. 3. After selecting the targeted disk, click the Delete button. Area for Detached Disks Figure 14 - Deleting Additional Disks Before an Additional Disk can be deleted, the VM it is attached to must be stopped. In addition, any backup images of that disk must also have been deleted. Detach / Attach Additional Disks The following procedure details how to attach or detach Additional Disks from VMs. Note The VM must be stopped in order to attach / detach an Additional Disk. To detach Additional Disks 1. Select the VM that the Additional Disk is attached to. 2. Choose the Additional Disk from the drop-down menu next to Name in the Property area. 3. After selecting the Additional Disk, click the Disconnect button. Date: 17/11/2014 Page 8 of 14
4. The Additional Disk is then detached and moved to the Area for Detached Disks (shown above). To attach Additional Disks 1. Drag and drop the Additional Disk from the Area for Detached Disks to the required VM to attach it to. 2. The Additional Disk is then attached to the VM and the Additional Disk icon disappears from the Area for Detached Disks. Reconfiguring Network Settings The following procedure explains how to modify the existing network connections and add or delete Global IP Addresses. Modify the Network Access Point When clicking the Configuration Map area (any space other than the icons), the status of the current network connection is displayed. By clicking either Internet or Intranet icons, Users can modify the Network Access Points of the system. Figure 15 - Changing the network connection Date: 17/11/2014 Page 9 of 14
To add a Global IP Addresses 1. Ensuring the Internet option is configured above, select the Firewall in the Configuration Map area. 2. Any current assigned Global IP Addresses will be displayed in the Property area along with their status. Figure 16 Add global IP address 3. Clicking Add IP Address will result in a single IP address being assigned to the VSYS. This will be shown as XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, as the actual address is allocated and confirmed once the changes are committed. Up to 10 Global IP addresses can be added per VSYS. To Delete a Global IP Address 1. Before an IP address can be deleted, it must be disabled within System Manager Figure 17 - Disable a global IP address 2. Click the Delete button next to the Global IP Address to be returned once status is showing as Disabled. Date: 17/11/2014 Page 10 of 14
Confirm an Approximate Estimate Once the Virtual System re-configuration has been completed, click Next to see the approximate estimate of amended usage charges. Figure 18 - Completing the Reconfiguration The approximate estimate is calculated on the basis that the total system is run for 744 hours (24 hours a day in a 31 day calendar month. All or part of the Virtual System can be turned off at any time so this estimated cost is indeed the highest possible price that the User could pay. Screen Functions PDF Output: Users can download the approximate estimate in PDF format. CSV Output: Users can download the approximate estimate in CSV format. Save Estimate: Users can save the Virtual System configuration and interrupt the process of creating a Virtual System. When Users click the Save Estimate button, the Virtual System configuration is saved. Users can save a configuration for a while and use the saved configuration to create a Virtual System later. Figure 19- Saving an Approximate Estimate To confirm the approximate estimate click the Next button. Text highlighted in Yellow is changes that will result to the monthly estimate, as a result of the reconfiguration. Date: 17/11/2014 Page 11 of 14
