  5. Auto Deploy Overview vCenter Server with Auto Deploy • Deploy and patch vSphere hosts in minutes using a new “on the fly” model • Coordination with vSphere Host Profiles vSphere vSphere Image Profiles Host Profiles Benefits • Rapid provisioning: initial deployment and patching of hosts • Centralized host and image management • Reduce manual deployment and patch processes vSphere vSphere

  6. Storage vMotion • In vSphere 5.0, a number of new enhancements were made to Storage vMotion. • Storage vMotion will work with Virtual Machines that have snapshots, which means coexistence with other VMware products & features such as VDR & HBR. • Storage vMotion will support the relocation of linked clones. • Storage vMotion has a new use case – Storage DRS – which uses Storage vMotion for Storage Maintenance Mode & Storage Load Balancing (Space or Performance).

  7. Storage DRS Overview • Group “like” datastores in a datastore cluster. • Initial placement of VMs/VMDKs • Datastore maintenance mode • Space and I/O load balancing • Affinity and anti-affinity rules Affinity Storage vMotion overloaded Benefits • Scalable storage management • Reduce time for VM provisioning • Eliminate VM downtime for storage maintenance • Automated Out of space avoidance • Automated I/O bottleneck avoidance DatastoreCluster

  8. Profile-Driven Storage Overview • Tier storage based on performance or SLA characteristics • View a list of all compliant storage resources High IO Throughput Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3 Benefits • Utilize the correct storage resources every time (no mistakes) • Help IT personnel that may not be as familiar with storage characteristics align with business and application goals • Improve storage utilization and efficiencies

  9. Performance Guarantees – Network and Storage I/O Control Overview 3. w/ I/O controls, can give VIP VMs preferential access 2. Other VMs are starved for resources 1. VM requests more resources • Set up SLAs for use of storage and network resources • Added per virtual machine settings for Network I/O Control • Added NFS support for StorageI/O Control Benefits • Eliminate the “noisy neighbor” problem • More granular SLA settings for network traffic • Extend Storage SLAs to more VMs
