3 Hypervisor This is what allows you to run other operating systems under your host OS Virtual machine This is the virtualized server you create to run under the hypervisor Guest OS Just what it sounds like the OS you re going to run in the virtual machine

4 Cost is the main driver Clusters everywhere with real SAN can get expensive, esp. for smaller shops 1. Development If you re developing cluster-aware applications, every developer can have their own cluster. 2. Application testing Similar to dev, allows QA to test things like how the app behaves during a failover. 3. IT sandbox and simulation Test things like patching, testing CTPs, and trying out cluster-based admin tasks before doing them in production

5 Not always the same as production hardware Example: can t simulate updating the HBA card driver Performance Don t expect miracles on a laptop or desktop If this is going to be your performance testing environment, you better have some SERIOUS hardware You may be the chief cook and bottle washer No one else will probably be supporting you The opportunity: you may learn a lot about the OS, networking, and storage!

6 Most popular hypervisors for PC-based laptops: Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V enabled Vmware Workstation (latest version 7.1) Others: Virtual Box ( Xen ( Parallels Desktop (Mac Vmware Fusion (Mac) Full blown Vmware vsphere/esx Each is different, none is the be-all-end-all

7 Depends on what you want to do (i.e. how many nodes, OS version, scenarios, etc.) Set realistic expectations for doing this Are you really going to do that benchmark on your laptop or try to approximate a certain configuration? Size a virtual machine that will host a guest just like a real server My experience: W2K8/R2 VMs: 1GB memory/40gb disk W2K3 is less (esp for a domain controller)

8 Processor Must support virtualization extensions (AMD or Intel) Make sure the vendor doesn t cripple them in BIOS ULV will work; Atom won t New Sandy Bridge architecture will be good Current best bang for the buck: i5-540 or i7-640

9 Laptop display Personal preference Realize you may scroll a bit with some guest OS resolutions Should support at least 1024x768 for presentations Some webcasts need 800x600 Important: May need 2008 R2 SP1 to prevent BSOD due to graphic card incompatibilities if Hyper-V enabled

10 Memory Need enough for the VMs + virtualization overhead plus enough for underlying OS and programs My recommendation: 8GB Physical Storage Need both speed and capacity Traditional platter-based HDDs can be slow and get fragmented (even 7200rpm) Go SSD (get a good one) and never look back External drives solve the capacity, not nec. speed USB 3.0/eSATA worth investigating (esata up to 6gbps)

11 Not magic Physically partition the drive for the OSes you want to use Best to do it when you first configure the system Can do it after with a tool like Paragon Partition Manager Always back up everything first if partitioning after one of the OSes is already installed Big caveat: can t configure Vmware Workstation and Hyper-V simultaneously

12 Need a minimum of three VMs Domain controller Two cluster nodes Shared Storage Need an iscsi Target due to changes in W2K8 Also good for W2K3 Choices: Starwind, Microsoft (via TechNet/MSDN) Recommendation: place on the domain controller One VM, two purposes

13 Domain Controller: 2 NICs (Public, iscsi) Nodes: 3 NICs (Public, Private, iscsi) General problem: The virtual NIC inside may not be mapped to the NIC you think it is Only way to deal with: configure and see what happens Possible solution: add the NICs one at a time no confusion that way

14 Vmware Workstation Initial creation: set one NIC to NAT to easily activate Windows Change the one back to host only when done activating Set the others to host only (I do this to isolate them) Can also set to talk over different Vmware networks per NIC Not really necessary for simple setups Hyper-V Need at least one virtual network NICs attached to a virtual network

15 Need an iscsi Target due to changes in W2K8 Also good for W2K3 Choices: Starwind, Microsoft (via TechNet/MSDN) Recommendation: place on the domain controller One VM, two purposes Vmware vsphere different Does not support iscsi as per Physical disks or files? It depends

16 Only done on the VM(s) that will be a domain controller For mos testing purposes, do not need a BDC Make the domain controller a DNS server as well TIP: If your environment has a funky AD configuration, ask your admins to help you configure AD

17 Don t configure things you won t need or use (e.g. USB, audio) Ex: USB: can get annoying when you insert devices and don t want the VM to use it Make sure you keep up to date on the tools (esp. Vmware) Watch temp space usage on disk (Vmware Workstation) for things like memory, snapshot, drag and drop

18 You only have 3 days to activate W2K8 Can cause you headaches if you forget Consider having the admin password set to never change Disclaimer: abide by your company s security rules (including password security lengths) Set in Computer Management Try to mimic production as close as possible Discover problems earlier rather than later

19 Watch disk fragmentation Performance will suffer Snapshots Easy to roll back to a prior point Make them at logical points Tip: Do all VMs at once AND after powering down Want to be able to roll EVERYTHING back to the same point Name them something easy to remember Caveat: disk space Don t use CTRL-ALT-DEL Each hypervisor has different keys or a button

20 I use IDE for the system disk type Sets apart from the shared disks, which are SCSI Create appropriate folders for your VMs Name the VMs smartly Getting files onto the VMs Vmware Workstation: ISO or drag and drop Hyper-V: ISO unless it s on your network If using external disks Watch the connection Accidentally yanking the cable may have adverse results

21 Make sure you shut down the VMs properly They are just like real servers; treat them as such Vmware Workstation tip: wait until VM is completely shut down and no disk activity To harness full power of Hyper-V, need System Center Virtual Machine Manager That said, what s there for free is good enough for dev/demo/test

22 The hard line (see KB956893) Clustering SQL 2K5/2K8/2K8 R2/Denali using W2K8 RTM/R2 The guest cluster meets the normal requirements for a supportable cluster Can t use snapshots Reality If it s for testing/sandbox, formal support probably doesn t matter but don t do THAT in production or deviate too far from what is done on a day-to-day basis

23 Clustering VMs is easier than you think Can t afford physical clusters everywhere? This solves that problem (to a point) Will need a reasonably sized laptop/desktop to do Disk I/O and memory most important All hypervisors are not the same, and each has pros/cons and little nuances you will need to get used to GREAT use of a MSDN/TechNet investment
