  5. Service Delivery – Service Level Management • i3 – Application Performance Management • Inform Alerts – threshold management • Response times • Resource Utilisation • Inform Foresight – trend analysis of performance data over time • Insight – breakdown of end-to-end response time by tier • Application Service Dashboard • Configurable portal to build customised service-level displays • CommandCentral Storage • Disk utilisation across multiple storage arrays • Centralised health monitoring • Performance • Events • Policy Compliance

  6. Service Level Measurement

  7. How VAD Helps Service Level Management -Veritas Application Director • Define Dependencies Between Tiers • - All components managed as service groups • - Agents controlling resources • “Tribal Knowledge” removed • View Status of Entire App • Consolidated status for monitoring SLAs • Perform Full Application Start/Stop With Single Command • - Single Operator can manage entire app

  8. How VAD Helps CPU=0.5 Mem=0.5g Service Delivery – Availability Management • Define Resource Needs • - Define CPU power and memory for each Server • Define App resource requirements • Place Apps Based on Resource Requirements • - Maintain SLAs • Allocate appropriate CPU “shares” and amount of physical memory for each app • Reduce Risks • - Define and track compatibilities automatically • - Ensure high availability of servers and apps CPU=1 Mem=1g CPU=8 Mem=6g CPU=2 Mem=2g CPU=4 Mem=4g

  9. Virtualization: Physical-to-Virtual HA/DR Physical servers are used for normal production workload and virtual machines are used for recovery. If a server fails, the application migrates to the virtual machine. Failover across a WAN requires the VCS Global Clustering.

  10. Service Delivery - Capacity Management • Operational and Business Reports • Array, SAN, and Backup Performance Trending and Projections • Capacity, Allocation, Consumption Analysis • Potential Wasted Storage Reports

  11. Service Support – Incident Management • i3 - Application Performance Management • Automate generation of Incident record when threshold breached • Veritas Configuration Manager • Automatic update of dependency maps to highlight servers with recent changes to facilitate outage resolution

  12. Service Support – Problem Management • i3 - Application Performance Management • Indepth modules – Root-cause analysis of performance slowdowns • Database • Application • Web • Storage • ERP/CRM • Veritas Configuration Manager • Automatic update of dependency maps to highlight servers with recent changes to facilitate outage resolution

  13. Verification of Problem Resolution Before After

  14. Service Support – Configuration Management • Veritas Configuration Manager • Automated hardware and software discovery • Automated building of dependency maps • Server consistency checking • Configuration change tracking • CommandCentral Storage • End-to-end visibility from server to spindle

  15. Service Support – Change Management • Veritas Configuration Manager • Externalisation of Configuration Item data via URL or API • Before and after comparison of changes

  16. Example – Recommendation for Implementation Configurable IT Service Offerings… …accessed via self-service IT Service Catalog… …validated through workflow-driven Lead process … …delivered through automated provisioning inside the existinginfrastructure… …with predictable performance, schedule & cost… …allows complete financial transparency Storage Mgt Center Performance Mgt Center Backup Mgt Center
