VMware Virtualization Basics Before Virtualization: After Virtualization: Software tied to hardware Single OS image per machine One application workload per OS Inflexible, costly infrastructure Virtualization Layer is a software abstraction that allows operating systems and applications to run on virtual hardware that is distinct from the physical hardware
Key Properties of Virtual Machines Partitioning Run multiple operating systems on one physical machine Divide system resources between virtual machines
Key Properties of Virtual Machines Partitioning Run multiple operating systems on one physical machine Divide system resources between virtual machines Isolation Fault and security isolation at the hardware level Advanced resource controls preserve performance

VMware Lowers Cost of Clustering Cluster-in-a-box Protects against operator error, application and operating system crashes Cluster-across-boxes Protects against operator error, application and operating system crashes, and hardware failure Cluster between physical and virtual machines Low-cost N+1 redundancy with a great reduction in hardware required Use MSCS clustering for automated failover between physical and virtual machines
Options for Disaster Recovery Physical to Physical Today s scenario without virtual infrastructure Requires identical disaster recovery site Physical to Virtual Reduces cost, improves time to recovery, and increases flexibility Virtual to Virtual Greatest flexibility, lowest cost, best time to recovery
Disaster Recovery Customer Scenario #1 Result: 16.5 minutes to failover!
Disaster Recovery Customer Scenario #2
Combining ESX Server with Storage Area Networks Multiple physical machines to access the same storage Multiple ESX Servers see the same VMFS volumes to provide: Workload balancing via easy VM relocation High availability using clustered applications Rapid provisioning using a Template Repository Native MPIO multipathing support provides I/O-channel redundancy Maintains VM access to virtual disk files in case of HBA or SANpath failure VMware ESX Server with VMFS VM A Node 1 Node 2 ESX1 ESX2 ESX3 A.vmdk Node1.vmdk Data.vmdk W2ksvr.vmdk Node2.vmdk SANVMFS1 SANVMFS2 Templates SAN
SAN-based Boot Support for ESX Server Advantages of booting ESX Server off the SAN: Improved availability Boot device protected on networked storage Improved flexibility Servers can be easily replaced in case of failures Reduced complexity Leverage best practices for backup and restore Virtual Machines (VMs) ESX boot VM boot ESX Server V3.0
Local Replication with ESX Server Physical-to-Virtual Reduce total cost of ownership by consolidating backup servers onto one ESX Server Virtual Machines on the backup / mount ESX Server can access the replicas to back up application data Supported for application data and RDMs Production servers Windows Replica of Windows Linux Replica of Linux SOFTWARE Virtualization layer Intel architecture HARDWARE Backup server Virtual-to-Virtual Reduce total cost of ownership by consolidating production and backup servers Reduce backup windows by using replicas for backup source Reduce application downtime, or the time application spends in Hot Backup mode Production ESX Servers SOFTWARE Virtualization layer Intel architecture HARDWARE Windows Replica of Windows Linux Replica of Linux SOFTWARE Virtualization layer Intel architecture HARDWARE Backup server
Remote Replication with ESX Server Physical-to-Virtual: Reduce total cost of ownership at the secondary site by consolidating servers ESX Server at the secondary site can be used for remote backup, or as disaster-recovery servers Improve recovery-time objectives (RTOs) with VirtualCenter cloning Production servers Virtualization layer Intel architecture SOFTWARE HARDWARE Recovery ESX Server Virtual-to-Virtual: Reduce TCO by consolidating production and backup servers Improve production performance with array-based replication Potential expanded uses for: Application testing, remote backups, reporting, VMotion transfers SOFTWARE Virtualization layer Intel architecture HARDWARE Production ESX Servers SOFTWARE Virtualization layer Intel architecture HARDWARE Recovery ESX Server
