  2. Agenda • Solution Overview • Application Design and Test Results • System Management • DR Design and Test Results • Summary

  3. Solution Overview

  4. Solution Objectives

  5. Solution Architecture

  6. Hyper-V Cluster and Virtual Machines • Distribute virtual machines in the same application role into different Hyper-V nodes for redundancy • 200 GB boot LUNs for each virtual machine • All DB and log LUNs as pass-through disks

  7. Hardware resources

  8. Software resources

  9. FAST VP Configuration • Each application has its own policy, but shares the same tiers

  10. Application Design and Test Results FAST VP baseline testing without RecoverPoint replication in place RecoverPointCRR protection impact on applications: 25 msnetwork latency (round trip) 85 ms network latency (round trip)

  11. Exchange Server 2010 User Profile

  12. Exchange Server 2010 Design • Exchange DAG configuration • Exchange virtual machine design

  13. Exchange Sever 2010 Performance Result FAST VP with RecoverPoint • RecoverPoint CRR replication has little impact on Exchange Server 2010 performance FAST VP baseline • ~60% CPU usage on MBX servers • Healthy disk latency

  14. SQL Server 2012 User Profile

  15. SQL Server 2012 Design

  16. SQL Sever 2012 Performance Result FAST VP with RecoverPoint • RecoverPoint CRR replication has little impact on SQL Server 2012 performance FAST VP baseline • ~9,000 IOPS and ~80% CPU on two SQL Servers • Healthy disk latency

  17. SharePoint Server 2010 User Profile

  18. SharePoint Server 2010 Design

  19. SharePoint Sever 2010 Performance Result FAST VP with RecoverPoint • RecoverPoint CRR replication has little impact on SharePoint Server 2010 performance FAST VP baseline • 58 Passed Tests/sec • 35,308 heavy users at 10% concurrency • Healthy response time

  20. VMAX 10K Performance Result • Array utilization: • BE UT: ~50% • FE UT: ~25% • Disk UT: • FC & SATA: ~60% • Flash: ~30%

  21. System Management

  22. System Management • SCVMM for VM deployment • ESI for storage provisioning • SCOM for monitoring

  23. DR Design and Test Results RecoverPoint compression ratio and RPO results RecoverPoint/CE failover: Planned failover (Live Migration) Unplanned failover (site disaster recovery)

  24. RecoverPoint Journal Sizing • Journal volume sizing formula • Journal sizing for this solution

  25. RecoverPoint/Cluster Enabler Setup 2 • Setup Hyper-V Cluster on Production site • Configure one consistency group per virtual machine and match names • Finish consistency group initial replication • Set the correct consistency group policy • Use Cluster Enabler to configure the cluster and add nodes from the DR site • Test failover using Live Migration 4

  26. RecoverPoint Compression Ratio • 3x compression ratio on Exchange Mailbox Server and SQL Server virtual machines • 1.5x compression ratio on the SharePoint SQL virtual machines

  27. RecoverPoint RPO in 85 ms latency • Data lag: • 40 MB for MBX • 20 MB for SQL • 10 MB for others • Time lag: <3 sec

  28. Planned Failover • Failover time • SharePointresumed servingclients afterfailing over

  29. Benefits Unplanned Failover • A comprehensive data protection solution for the entire data center • Zero user intervention during site failover • Site failover time • SharePoint farm behavior

  30. Summary

  31. Key Findings • Desired performance to meet the needs of the following application configurations: • SharePoint: 35,308 heavy users at 10 percent concurrency • SQL: 60,000 users with more than 4,000 SQL transactions processed and 9,000 IOPS • Exchange: 10,000 concurrent users at 0.10 IOPS profile • Ease of provisioning and simplified management of the whole infrastructure • A comprehensive data protection solution with 100% automatic site failover and good RTO and RPO • 3x compression ratio for most data • 3 second time lag and 18 minute freezing time to client (worst case) during site failover in 85ms network latency

  32. Reference • Whitepaper: • http://www.emc.com/collateral/hardware/white-papers/h10720-emc-infstr-msapps-private-cloud-wp.pdf • Demos: • http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLE77DA2CD44C6F27F&feature=plcp • Hyper-V pass-through disks provisioning by ESI • Live Migration of a SharePoint SQL Server • Automatic site failover and SharePoint behaviors • Automatic site failover and Exchange behaviors
