13. Citrix Lab Management Solution Rapidly provision complex workload configurations Employ consistent and repeatable virtual environments Automate software installations, test execution and results gathering Collaborate on common configurations for testing, debugging, training or demo purposes Easily reclaim hardware to ensure efficient recycling of resources and reduce sprawl Introduced in XenServer 5 Platinum Edition

14. Citrix Lab Management Capabilities Provides a self-service portal to authorized workload templates Frees IT, test and development admins from time consuming provisioning tasks Reduces virtual machine sprawl through automated lease-based cleanup • Optimizes the utilization of existing hardware, software and storage resources • Reduces the capital and operating costs of managing non-production virtual environments

15. Lab Management

16. Active Directory Authentication • Give selected AD users XenServer management priviliges without providing root credentials • Configurable via XenCenter and CLI • Set once per Resource Pool • Local super-user account will remain • No AD schema extensions

17. Workload Balancing – Placement Strategies • Maximize Performance • Default setting • Spread workload evenly across all physical hosts in a resource pool • The goal is to minimize CPU, memory, and network pressure for all hosts • Maximize Density • Fit as many virtual machines as possible onto a physical host • The goal is to minimize the number of physical hosts that must be online

18. Workload Balancing – Critical Thresholds • Components included in WLB evaluation: • CPU • Memory • Network Read • Network Write • Disc Read • Disk Write • Optimization recommendation is being triggered if a threshold is reached

19. Workload Reports • Pool Health • Shows aggregated resource usage for a pool • Pool / Host Health History • Displays resource usage for a pool or host over time

20. Workload Reports • Optimization Performance History • Shows resource usage before and after executing optimization recommendations

21. Workflow Automation and Orchestration • Problems faced • Manual tasks introduce delay and errors • Scripting requires time & expertise • Increasing IT demands • Benefits • Automate repetitive tasks • Create services using Microsoft Powershell™ • Automatically provision new servers • Part of Essentials for XenServer

22. Dynamic Provisioning Services • Problems faced • Exploding storage costs • Lack of image management tools • Lack of business charge back mechanisms • Unable to leverage existing storage infrastructure • Benefits • Fast response to server workload demands • Consolidated image catalog reduces storage needs • Supports streaming to XenServer and Hyper-V • Can stream Hyper-V to a bare metal machine
