  1. IBM Virtualization Engine Platform Delivering enhanced capabilities in 2H2005 Tom Monza IBM Systems and Technology Group

  2. Traditional view of virtualization Make a large system look like many – partitioning technology Evolving to the next level Make many small systems look like one Virtualization facilitates On Demand Businesses Continues the evolution of transaction processing to collaborative processing Open standards and interfaces are required IBM Systems are the first systems in the industry to enable web services resource management based on MUWS and WSRF Taking virtualization to the next step

  3. Traditional Approach Guiding Principles Closed Systems Unique components for each system Unique Systems Management tools Unique interfaces Unique System Administration Skills Non-standard GUI Dedicated resources No Capacity management Transaction by Transaction Management Proprietary LANs and No shared I/O Monolithic Vertically integrated Storage Simplified access and control Investment protection Common System Administration Skills Shared innovation & learning Interoperability Support for heterogeneous environment Open standards Open ecosystem Freedom of Choice Virtual access Programmatic Interface Virtual view Virtual management Workload & performance managers Resource management, modeling, mapping Virtual planning tools Virtual Resources Resource virtualizers IBM Server & Storage Systems IBM Virtualization Engine: product to platform Strategic Platform

  13. Automatic Discovery of IBM and non-IBM resources Identifies dependencies and relationships Graphical display of topology via VEC Customer may logically group resources to reflect business objectives. View resource properties & status Zoom, pan, etc. Customer can view relationships to discover side effects of problem resources or operator actions Resource Dependency Service

  14. Manageable Resource Decomposition and Standards Management Applications MR Model (WSDL) Resource Specific Components Resource Specific Manageability Common Information Model (CIM) (not to be confused with a CIM Server) Mapping of CIM to WSDM (WS-CIM) Manageable Resource Components Common Manageability Management using Web Services (WSDM MUWS) Web Services Components WS-ResourceFramework (WSRF) WS-Notification (WS-N) WS-Addressing ….. Web Services Platform MR Web Service Resource Instrumentation Resources Resources Resources

  15. The Anatomy of a Manageable Resource External Web Services Interface • From the perspective of the client, the manageable resource is a single encapsulated instance exposed through the external web services interface. • Internal implementation provides mapping and federation of resource state, management operations, events and relationships. • Existing resource implementations must be extended and adapted to allow the integration with the On Demand management infrastructure. • Investment protection - This is not a complete replacement of the management systems and infrastructures that we have been building for years, however an adaptation. Manageable Resource Resource Model (WSDL) Web Service Implementation proprietary communication Native Resource Instrumentation Internal Implementation Isolation from Implementation

  16. Evolution of manageable resources Automate See Manage Tier 0 Tier 1 Tier 2 Discovery, Identification, Relationships and Topologies Basic Monitoring and Management Virtualization, Provisioning, Availability and Performance • Resource Health Management UI • Real time state and events • Red, yellow, green status… • Operations to start, stop, reboot, etc. • Service Level Automation • Performance mgmt • Availability mgmt • Configuration mgmt • Virtualization Management (UI) • Consistency across platforms realized via ODI:RM abstraction. • Create, modify and delete virtualized resources. On Demand Infrastructure IBM Confidential
