3. Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V Requirement to Setup High Availability Virtual Machine Science Experiment (Demo) Clustered Shared Volume and Live Migration Agenda
4. Requirement 2 X Hyper V Server 2008 R2 Shared storage – FC / iSCSI 1 volume for Quorum 1 volume for Storage- VM ClusterNode2 ClusterNode1 SAN must support SCSI 3 Persistent Reservation
5. Requirement for using Failover Cluster - Node Operating system running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Hyper V R2. Same operating system on all nodes. Example:- Server Core Full Installation Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Full Installation Windows Server 2008 R2 Data Center Free Hyper V 2008 R2 with Server Core Same Drive letter of system drive Hyper V role installed Same software updates (patches) and service packs Domain environment 5

8. Cluster Shared Volume Overview Concurrent access to a single file system Single Volume SAN Disk5 VHD VHD VHD
9. Solution in R1 In the past (2008) - 1 LUN for 1 VM LUN smallest unit of failover Run out of storage space Wasted storage space Storage management challenging Free Space Used VHD Space Wasted Space Out of Space VHD Many LUNs to Manage VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD
10. Solution in R2 The Solution (R2): 1 LUN for many VMs VM smallest unit of failover VMs share the pool of unused space Flexible utilization and easy management Free Space Used VHD Space Free Space VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD VHD
11. Single Name Space CSV provides a single consistent file name space Files have the same name and path when viewed from any node in the cluster CSV volumes are exposed as directories and subdirectories under the “ClusterStorage” root directory C:lusterStorageolume1lt;root> C:lusterStorageolume2lt;root> C:lusterStorageolume3lt;root>
13. What is Live Migration Move a running Virtual Machine from one computer to another computer with no perceived downtime for the VM VM is not aware of the migration Maintain TCP connections of the guest OS Building block for Dynamic Data Center through business agility, cost reduction and increase in productivity High availability for production workloads Host is now offline for servicing (hardware, software)
14. How Live Migration Work?Initiate migration Client accessing VM Live Migrate this VM to another physical machine SAN IT Admin initiates a Live Migration to move a VM from one host to another VHD
15. How Live Migration Work?Memory copy: Full copy Memory content is copied to new server VM pre-staged SAN The first initial copy is of all in memory content VHD
16. How Live Migration Work?Memory copy: Dirty pages Client continues accessing VM Pages are being dirtied SAN Client continues to access VM, which results in memory being modified VHD
17. How Live Migration Work?Memory copy: Incremental copy Recopy of changes Smaller set of changes SAN Hyper-V tracks changed data, and re-copies over incremental changes Subsequent passes get faster as data set is smaller VHD
18. How Live Migration Work?Final transition Partition State copied VM Paused SAN Window is very small and within TCP connection timeout VHD
19. How Live Migration Work?Post-Transition: Clean-up Client directed to new host Old VM deleted once migration is verified successful SAN Since session state is maintained, no reconnections necessary ARP issued to have routing devices update their tables VHD

Notas do Editor
Enabling multiple nodes to concurrently access a single ‘truly’ shared volumeProvides VM’s complete transparency with respect to which nodes actually own a LUNGuest VMs can be moved without requiring any drive ownership changesNo dismounting and remounting of volumes is required
