5. Transform Your Data Center into a Private Cloud COMPUTE STORAGE NETWORK CLUSTER • Deploy your compute resources, taking them from bare metal to fully deployed for your physical and virtualization hosts. • Discover, classify, and allocate storage for use by the private cloud. Provide the correct storage for use with appropriate access. • Abstract your complex networking infrastructure into logical networks for cloud use. Assign IP, virtual IP, and MAC addresses from pools and integrate with load balancers. • Consolidate your infrastructure componenentsfor use in a private cloud.

11. OPTIMIZE STORAGE INFRASTRUCTURE UTILIZATION Virtual Machine Manager

12. Utilize Storage More Effectively END-TO-END MAPPING Create associations between storage and VM through reconciling data from Hyper-V and storage arrays Identify storage consumed by VM, host, and cluster CAPACITY MANAGEMENT RAPID PROVISIONING Add storage to a host or cluster through masking operations, initialization, partitioning, formatting, and CSV cluster resource creation Add storage capacity during new cluster creation Create new VMs leveraging the SAN to copy the VHD Utilize SMI-S copy services and replication profiles Deploy to host or cluster at scale

13. Virtual Machine Manager Storage Allocation Process Discover storage through SMI-S provider Create storage classification pools and associate with storage Host Group SMI-S Provider Allocate storage to specific host groups Assign existing LUNs to hosts and clusters Create new LUNs from pool and assign to hosts and clusters Tier 1 Tier 2

14. LOGICAL ABSTRACTION FOR THE NETWORK INFRASTRUCTURE Virtual Machine Manager

15. Network Management LOGICAL NETWORKS Classify network for VMs to access Map to network topology Allocate to hosts and clouds ADDRESS POOLS LOAD BALANCERS Allocate a static IP address to VMs from a preconfigured pool Create IP pool as a managed range of IP address assignments Create MAC address pool as a managed range of MAC address assignments Apply settings for load balancer capability in service deployment Control load balancer through vendor provider based on PowerShell Create virtual IP templates consisting of load balancer configuration settings

16. Logical Networks in the Private Cloud Standardized Services Delegated Capacity Development Production Complex Networking Simple Networking Cloud Abstraction Create Logical Networks and assign them to the appropriate networking on the hosts Deployed services use correct Logical Networks Logical & Standardized DMZ Prod DMZ Prod DMZ Prod Diverse Infrastructure Data Center One Data Center Two Production Development

17. Address Pools IP POOLS Assigned to VMs, hosts, and virtual IPs Specified use in VM template creation Checked out at VM creation—assigns static IP in VM Returned on VM deletion MAC POOLS VIRTUAL IP POOLS Assigned to VMs Specified use in VM template creation Checked out at VM creation—assigned before VM boot Returned on VM deletion Assigned to service tiers that use a load balancer Reserved within IP Pools Assigned to clouds Checked out at service deployment Returned on service deletion

18. Load Balancer Support AUTOMATION Connect to load balancer through hardware provider Assign to clouds, host groups, and logical networks Configure load balancing method and add virtual IP on service deployment PARTNERS VIRTUAL IP TEMPLATES F5 BIG-IP Brocade ServerIron ADX Citrix NetScaler Microsoft Network Load Balancer Specifies preconfigured properties for configuring a load balancer at service deployment Specifies load balancing methods—round robin, least connections, fastest response

19. “ZERO TO CLUSTER” THE FOUNDATION FOR YOUR PRIVATE CLOUD Virtual Machine Manager

20. Zero to Hyper-V Cluster Storage Configure Boot and install Hyper-V cluster VMM Server Bare-Metal Server Configure network Configure storage Network

21. Host Clusters Bring the Fabric Together CREATION Use wizard-based experience Support cluster validation Allocate cluster disks from managed storage Create cluster-wide virtual network MANAGEMENT DELETION Add and remove nodes, cluster disks, and virtual networks Drag and drop host to add node to cluster Monitor cluster health and status Clustered hosts will become managed standalone hosts Clustered disks will be returned to managed storage

22. Add Nodes from Host Group Specify hosts from chosen host group to add to cluster. Skip validation. If desired, validate later.

23. Configurable IP Addressing on Cluster Creation Detected IP pool and Logical Network. Administrator selected the IP pool, and used an assigned address from the pool. Detected IP pool and Logical Network. Administrator manually specified the exact address from this pool. Neither an IP pool nor a Logical Network discovered. Administrator assigned manual IP address.

24. Assign Storage on Cluster Creation Assign existing LUNs allocated to host group. Enable CSV support for cluster shared volumes.

25. Constructing the Private Cloud Standardized Services Delegated Capacity Development Production Cloud Abstraction Assign dedicated and shared resources Logical & Standardized Diverse Infrastructure Data Center One Data Center Two Production Development

26. BUILD YOUR PRIVATE CLOUD, YOUR WAY, THROUGH ABSTRACTION Virtual Machine Manager

27. Create the Private Cloud Development Production Cloud Abstraction Logical & Standardized Data Center One Data Center Two Production Development

28. Logically Group Your Resources into Clouds Create clouds for specific needs View deployed services and VMs Overprovision across cloud resources

29. Connect to Physical Infrastructure Components Aggregate capacity of underlying resources Choose your logical network abstractions Choose the types of storage available

30. Control Amount of Cloud Resources Place limits around physical resources consumed by cloud Dynamically adjust resource limits as needs change

31. Control the Types of VMs for Self-Service Users Set constraints and limits around VMs with capability profiles Attach to clouds to control usage

32. LEVERAGE YOUR HETEROGENEOUS VIRTUALIZATION INVESTMENT Virtual Machine Manager

33. Leverage Your Existing Investments CONSISTENCY Offer same capabilities with different hypervisors Use the same network abstractions Deploy VMs and applications in a consistent manner CHOICE SIMPLICITY Microsoft Hyper-V VMware vSphere 4.1 Citrix XenServer 6.0 Abstract the hypervisor layer to decrease complexity Simplify migration between virtualization solutions Use the same methods to manage virtualization and deploy services to different hypervisors

35. DELEGATE ACCESS TO PRIVATE CLOUD CAPACITY Virtual Machine Manager

36. Delegating Access to Private Cloud Capacity Delegated Capacity Development Production Cloud Abstraction Data Center One Data Center Two Production Development

37. Role-Based Access Self-Service User Application Owner • Clouds only • Revocable actions • Quota controlled Administrator Delegated Administrator Infrastructure Administrator Infrastructure Administrator • Entire system • Can take any action • Host groups and clouds • Can take any action at that level Read-Only Administrator Infrastructure Operations • Host groups and clouds • No actions

38. Assign Actions to User Roles Create custom roles Choose actions and change actions dynamically as needed Uses Active Directory users and groups

39. Assign Quota Capacity Ability to set quota at the “all members combined” level Ability to set quota at the “individual member” level 50 VM limit for all members of user role 10 VM limit per individual member

40. STANDARDIZE APPLICATION DEPLOYMENT Virtual Machine Manager

43. Create Service Template with Service Designer Use the ribbon for contextual actions within the Service Template Designer. Use the designer canvas to build your service template from virtual machine templates, Logical Networks, and Load Balancers. Set service-related properties such as cost center, description, release version.

44. Deploy Service Through Deployment Preview Preview pane shows view of your service deployment. Settings allow you to set deployment specific variables. Ribbon bar for deploy activity or to check deployment ratings.

45. View Deployed Service Perform operations at the service level, tier level, or individual VM level. View specific service, tier, or application settings.

46. Automatically Pushed Throughout System Center for Monitoring and CMDB Accuracy Deployed service viewed as distributed application in Operations Manager and business service in Service Manager. Monitored at the tier level. Viewed at the virtual machine level.
