Thin Provisioning:Better Storage Utilization
• Create a virtual volume to match size of data provisioning request
• Allocate a smaller amount of actual physical disk space
• Additional physical space allocated automatically as needed
• Reduces wasteful over provisioning of storage
• Saves disk space and power consumption

Storage Virtualization Benefits
• Provides a quick and easy way to provision and share storage resources as needed
• Works with and across any type of storage (SAS, SATA, SSD...) and any brand
• Shared storage enables VMware advanced features (VMotion, VMware HA, Distributed Resource Scheduler)
• Allows easy growth of virtual resources• Space savings through thin provisioning

Disaster Recovery Challenges
• Organizations face an urgent need for effective, efficient disaster recovery
• Traditional DR solutions are complex, expensive, slow and prone to failure
• Due to costs, DR plans are often limited in scope and do not protect all corporate IT assets
• Difficult to perform DR rehearsals, test plan verification

The Current VMware Backup Landscape
• 80% of VMware users are using backup to tape
• 24% of VMware users are using VMware Consolidated Backup (VCB)
• Of the major VMware products (ESX, Vmotion, vCenter Server, etc.) VCB has the lowest satisfaction rating and the lowest perceived return on investment*
* All statistics from VMware customer survey data from July-August 2008

Virtualization Changes Server, Application, and Information Paradigm… Innovative Storage Service Needed to Deliver Greater Consolidation, Value
Low overall server utilization:CPU cycle available to server-based applications such as Backup agent, Replication…
High overall server utilization:Not much CPU/IO bandwidth left for host-based applications: Backup Agent. Replication…
Server virtualization was introduced to save money and/or improve service levels, so what are the plans to address recovery?

The problem, simply put
“Backups hit the most vulnerable points with VMware: its narrow ability to handle excessive disk and network I/O... A backup load is one of the worst loads for a VMware server to accommodate.”
-- Ashley D’CostaFrom Three VMware data backup and restore methods

DR Challenges in Virtual Environments
• Physical server resources, disk and network I/O tend to be highly utilized– This is by design – Impacts backup processing
• Backing up active VMDK files leads to crash-consistent data (at best) or lost/corrupted data (at worst)
• Coordinating VM shutdown with snapshots and backups takes sophisticated scripting ability
• Relationships between physical disks and VMDK files requires careful coordination Physical Storage

What to look for in a DR solution for VMware
Time to recovery• How long until systems are back online?• How quickly will my business be restarted?
Application/transactional consistency• Are applications ready to start when I need them?• Do I have to wait out lengthy consistency checks?
System Manageability• Can I keep track of all the parts of my DR operation?

What to look for in a DR solution for VMware
WAN bandwidth utilization
• Is bandwidth utilization efficient to reduce costs?
Freedom of choice• Can I use different vendor disk arrays and/or different storage
protocols at the recovery site?
DR plan testing
• Can my DR plan be easily tested to make sure that it works?
Failback
• Can I reverse the data flow to rebuild the primary site?

What is VMware Site Recovery Manager?
• VMware Site Recovery Manager (SRM) is a new product for disaster recovery that does the following:– Simplifies and automates key disaster recovery workflows:
setup, testing, failover, failback– Simplifies and centralizes management of recovery plans
• This combination of disaster recovery automation with the capabilities of VMware Infrastructure reduces time to recover, risk, complexity and cost
• However, SRM by itself does not address:– Application/transactional integrity– WAN bandwidth utilization– Flexibility in choosing a disk array vendor

MicroScan WAN optimization
• Applications and file systems write far more data to disk than actual changes
• NSS scans the changes at a 512 byte level and replicates only the changed data– Avoids constant re-
sending of duplicate data
512 byte
= empty disk sector
= data written by application or file system
= sector with actual data change
A typical 8k write of data. Many systems send all 8k or more. NSS sends only the
truly changed sectors.

MicroScan WAN Savings Example
• Actual user production data for Microsoft Exchange replication– 1300 users, hourly replication from CA to PA– High random-write nature of Exchange is well suited to MicroScan
removal of duplicate data• Average WAN traffic reduction of 97% with no additional
network equipment needed
