Why VMware / HP Virtualization? Support Matrix Product Offering Interoperability Solutions Summary Questions Topics

Why HP + VMware: Better Together Depth and Breath of VMware relationship Long-term relationship with VMware Dedicated VMware team to support HP HP/ VMware Integrated product development and certification Product family certifications across all lines, ESX Server qualification across multiple HP platforms Integrated Management Tools OpenView, RDP and HP SIM, Proliant Essentials, Storage Essentials VMware has developed specific solutions & bundles for HP VMware & Microsoft support provided by HP One stop shop for all product and support, 2 hour telephone response with no severity coding HP Support organization trained and staffed for 7x24 VMware, Microsoft and Linux support worldwide Customers have a one stop shop for all products and support Including: VMware GSX Server, ESX Server, Virtual SMP, VirtualCenter & VMotion As well as Linux, Microsoft and Netware support within a VM Tools, sizers, solution bundles HP provides a complete solution including VMware software, HP hardware, and HP World Wide Services and Support

Why VMware, HP Virtualization? VMware virtualizes servers HP Complete End to End Offering Servers, Storage, Services Enterprise wide manageability Simplicity, Flexibility, Scalability Grid support HP EVA virtualizes storage automatically One line scalability both in performance and capacity

EVA Virtual Storage: do more with less (less time, less money and less resources) A logical means of overcoming physical limitations Virtual Disks Block-Level I/O Mapping Storage Pools Storage Virtualization The dynamic presentation of the correct storage attributes to applications, regardless of underlying physical characteristics 5

Traditional RAID vs. EVA Vraid on VMware RAID RAID 1+0 Volume (LUN) RAID 5 Volume (LUN) Tedious, manual volume placement and management RAID 1+0 Volume (LUN) EVA Vraid Logical Vraid 5 Virtual Disk (LUN) Vraid 1+0 Virtual Disk (LUN) Physical Vraid 1+0 Virtual Disk (LUN) All LUNs share all disks in a pool, EVA manages performance 6

Buy less--eliminate over provisioning waste Traditional SAN Architecture (Wasted space) Stranded capacity Storage locked snapshot-space Vol. 1 Vol. 2 Vol. 3 Vol. 4 Under-utilized storage space Maximize your storage utilization! HP StorageWorks Enterprise Virtual Array Architecture Vol. 2 Solaris Vol. 4 Tru64 Available Capacity Available capacity is pooled in the EVA 7

With the EVA on VMware: Automatic LUN Expansion Buy capacity when you need it Add Disks + Logical Virtual Disk (LUN) Virtual Disk (LUN) Virtual Disk (LUN) Available Capacity (equivalent of 3 disks) Automatic, transparent data redistribution to optimize performance Easy expansion on the fly 8

VMware and EVA: high performance Vmotion Farm Virtual Disks owned by VMware ESX Logical Virtual Disk (LUN) Virtual Disk (LUN) Virtual Disk (LUN) EVA Vraid Physical Available Capacity (shared_ DSK DSK DSK VMFS Partition DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK VMFS Partition DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK VMFS Partition DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK VMFS Partition DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK VMFS Partition DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK DSK VMFS Partition DSK DSK DSK VMFS performance distributed across all disk spindles automatically 9

The VMware, EVA Solutions is Easy to manage reduced TCO Easy to use intuitive interface less training required Effortlessly generate virtual LUNs Size and level of redundancy Easily and dynamically expand virtual disk capacity Automatically redistributes data when the disk group increases Many other automated processes 10

StorageWorks Interoperability? 18

What does StorageWorks Interoperability do? Identify target opportunities and develop End to End strategy and qualification plans Increased involvement of StorageWorks Marketing Assure StorageWorks alignment with HP Servers, etc. Increased cross-divisional collaboration on product delivery and critical issue resolution (example: Dual Core Support) StorageWorks Directly with VMware Leverage industry component offering (HBA s, OS s, Switches, Servers, Applications, etc..) Focus on latest releases and interaction with SAN s Keep-up with the new releases Communicate what is supported http://www.hp.com/storage 19
