Virtual Machine Manager • Benefits • Preserve and optimize existing infrastructure investments • Improve infrastructure SLAs • Save time with standardized service creation and upgrades • Reduce costs through power optimization
VMM is the “Manager of Managers.” VMM serves the needs of the day to day administrator VMM can manage multiple VirtualCenters How SCVMM Manages VMware VMware Infrastructure Web Services APIsVMware supported API; Agentless; Enables cross-ESX host operationse.g., Vmotion File Operations to move files to/from ESX hostsSFTP; HTTPS SCVMM and VMware Integration
Create a dedicated account for VMM management Must have VirtualCenter admin privilege at Host & Clusters level Account does not need to be a local admin on VirtualCenter Certificate enables file creation/transfer Add VMware VirtualCenter VirtualCenter Server VMM Server
OK (Limited) OK – requires certificate ESX Host States in SCVMM
Before you configure security in VMM you must take some action on VC or ESX host VMware ESX Host Credentials SFTP Operations Determine ESX Host Credentials Root Requires SSH Root Login Enablement on each ESX Host Virtual Machine Delegate Requires Host Reboot Enabling Full VMware Management
VMware Fabric • Setup Fabric using vCenter • Configure Networking – Port Groups, vDS etc. • Deploy and Update ESX machines • Add vCenter to VMM • Select ESX hosts to add • Key Features • Dynamic Optimization, Power Optimization & PRO
VMware Cloud • Cloud Management • Aggregate capacity • Common delegation model • Multiple hypervisors can reside in a single cloud
VMware Service and Template • Templates • VMM Service Templates deployed to vSphere Hosts/Clusters • Create VMDK-based templates in the Library • Import templates from vCenter (keep VMDK file in place) • Key Features • Intelligent Placement • Live Migration (vMotion) & Storage Migration (svMotion) • Limitation • VMM recognizes Fault Tolerant VMs, but does not configure them.
Updates since SCVMM 2008 R2 • Selectively add vCenter Managed ESX(i) compute resources for cloud creation • VMware templates disks (*.vmdk’s) are no longer copied to the SCVMM Library • Support for VMware standard & distributed virtual switches • Support for using less privileged accounts in vCenter • Port groups discovered and used, not created • Support for thinly provisioned disks
VMware Supported Versions Ensure VMware vCenter and ESX are using a supported version Details: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg610683.aspx

App Controller • Role-based self-service portal • Single view of delegated resources across private, hosted and public clouds • Deploy and manage services in addition to virtual machines • Manage apps across multiple hypervisors, including Hyper-V, VMware & Citrix • Benefits • Increase app owner agility with self-service interface • Save time by bringing together all delegated infrastructure • Improve reliability by deploying template-based services
Cloud on Your Terms Microsoft Public Cloud & Service Providers System Center 2012 SP1 Microsoft Private Cloud Microsoft Private Cloud COMMON TOOLS: IDENTITY | MANAGEMENT | VIRTUALIZATION | DEVELOPMENT
Managing applications across multiple clouds And Service Providers Deploy Manage Monitor Service templates: Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer Package and configuration Application management across private and public Private cloud
Takeaways • VMM enables you to manage your private cloud containing multiple hypervisors, including Hyper-V, VMware & Citrix. • Preserve and optimize existing infrastructure investments • Improve infrastructure SLAs • Reduce costs through power optimization • App Controller provides application administrators a way to manage across multiple clouds and hypervisors. • Increase app owner agility with self-service interface • Save time by bringing together all delegated infrastructure • Improve reliability by deploying template-based services
