VSA Limits

Planning • Application coexistence – coexists with other VMs on an ESXi server
• Network storage – provides storage to apps running on any servers
• Multiple instances – >1 instances can be deployed on a single server
• Best practices – Reserve CPU and memory – Predictable backend IOPS and response time – Separate VSA root storage from virtual disks
• Server w/ 512MB raid card reference configuration sample frontend IOPS – 10,000 max 8k random read IOPS
12
Monitoring and Management
• VSA management and operations – Use vSphere and vCenter for assigning CPU and memory resources,
network configuration, and virtual disk provisioning – Monitor virtual environment health through vSphere
• Dell EMC Unity management and operations – Local mgmt - Use Unisphere for Dell EMC Unity data services
management and monitoring – Federated mgmt – Use Unisphere Central for federated view of multiple
systems – CloudIQ - Use CloudIQ for cloud monitoring and analytics of virtual and
physical arrays
13
Diagnostic
• Checks system for issues that could be caused by underlying issues with the hypervisor – CPU Steal – Network Latency – Disk Latency
• Reports active issues as well as issues that have been resolved
• Allows filtering by date range
• Allows use of custom thresholds

Native HA
• Current version works with VMware HA
• Native HA being designed – Hypervisor agnostic - targeting ESXi initially – Dual SP configuration – Uses multiple network and shared storage pings for
heartbeat – 3rd node tie breaker can be used for highest protection

KVM Use Case
• Same binaries, different packaging
• Same functionalities
• Provide Dell EMC Unity data services in: – Various Linux platforms
– OpenStack
– Paves the road to Public clouds
26
KVM Install • Self-contain executable script
– libvirt’s virsh - minimal dependencies – Verifies that dependencies are present on server
• Collects a variety of parameters to create a libvirt XML file: – libvirt connection URL – VM name, UUID, emulator path – Path to install disk images – Network information
› bridge vs. NAT, ports, IP addresses (IPv4 and IPv6), friendly name, etc. – Whether to start automatically
• Three QCOW2 disk images are contained in script, and extracted to specified path (accessed as virtio-scsi)
