Premigration Transformation Plan Example.doc
Categories for virtualization Categories per location (example) BlockXYZ Non-Production Storage < 500 GB Windows BlockYZX Production Application Dependency Storage < 500 GB Windows BlockZXY Production High memory / paging usage Storage < 500 GB Windows
Estimates and numbers (HAM) LOCATION ABC BlockXYZ Servers = 2 ConversionTime = 13,87 hours BlockYZX Servers = 1 ConversionTime = 43,56 hours Block ZXY Servers = 13 ConversionTime = 105,23 hours Servers out of scope in LOCATION ABC = 12
Workshop application dependency Determine application environment Applications / Processes Application dependencies Servers / Operating Systems Network / IP dependency Application landscape 3rd party connections Customer Administrators Service Levels
Migration Create migration Jobs OS Cleanup IPChange Backup Restore Application Test Customer Base level test document Test requirement Functional test Approval Hand over to production Conversion Test migration team Problem Solving / Roll back Present results in Dashboard

Why VMware? -> Global Current Market Leader Why Virtualization -> Next slide!
Low Utilisation and Server Sprawl Average Utilization of 7%
What s in a VM? 1 port 1-2 ports 1-4 adapters* * Sum of Ethernet and SCSI adapters must be <= 5 1-2 drives (Workstation, VMware Server only) 1-4 adapters*; 1-15 devices each 1-4 devices (up to 2 CD-ROM s) Up to 16GB RAM 1 CPU (4 CPU s with VMware SMP)
Virtualization Concepts - Hypervisor System without VMware Software System with VMware Software Separates BIOS, operating system, and applications from physical hardware Allows many virtual machines to share same physical hardware Standardizes multiple generations of multi-vendor hardware
Encapsulation Entire state of the VM is encapsulated Memory Disk images I/O device state VM State can be saved in one file! VM state can be transferred through time and space Time: store in a file Space: transfer over a network
Encapsulation Configuration file for the Guest Virtual Machine These 2 files are the entire Virtual Machine
Virtualization Concepts - 2 Abstract the Hardware Environment from the Applications and Services
Storage Virtualization Layers BusLogic or LSI C drive D drive
Live Migration Of Virtual Machines with VMotion What is it? Live migration of virtual machines with VMware VMotion Customer Impact Zero downtime Continuous service availability Complete transaction integrity Supported on Fibre Channel and iscsi SAN and NAS
Resource Optimization with VMware DRS Dynamic and intelligent allocation of hardware resources to ensure optimal alignment between business and IT Business Demand Resource Pool
Capacity on Demand with VMware DRS Add hardware dynamically Provisioning is fire and forget Easily add more capacity Resource Resource Pool Pool CPU 36GHz, CPU 50 Mem GHz, 58GB Mem 70GB Priority Priority HIGH HIGH Avoid overprovisioning to peak load
Ensure High availability with VMware HA VMware HA enables cost-effective high availability for all applications What is it? Automatic restart of virtual machines in case of server failure X Resource Pool Customer Impact Cost effective high availability for all applications No need for dedicated stand-by hardware None of the cost and complexity of clustering
Backup Options for VMs Back-up each VM - Agent resides inside each VM exactly like your physical servers today - File Level Back-up & Restore Whole Server Backup - Install Back-up software inside the ESX Server Console - Reduce Back-up licenses - System level Back-up Restore SAN Based - Use SAN snapshot - SAN handles checkpointing and Tape archiving automatically - Fast Block copy
VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB) Snapshot Mounted as Local Drive Windows Backup Proxy Redo Log VMDK file On SAN VMFS Volume
