vSphere 6 – vMotion updates
CONFIDENTIAL 9
vSphere 6 vMotion Updates• Cross vSwitch vMotion
– Standard vSwitch to Standard vSwitch– Standard vSwitch to Distributed vSwitch– Distributed vSwitch to Distributed vSwitch– NOTE: Distributed vSwitch to Standard
vSwitch is NOT supported
• Cross vCenter vMotion– Both vCenter must be in the same SSO
Domain– No need for Shared Storage
• Shared Nothing Migration– Alarms, Events, HA, DRS setting all migrated
with VM
CONFIDENTIAL 10
vSphere 6 vMotion Updates• Long Distance vMotion
– 10ms is up to 150ms– Layer 2 Adjacency no longer a requirement
• vMotion support for Microsoft Clusters – Physical RDMs
CONFIDENTIAL 11
A Little Background on RAW Device Mapping• What is an RDM
– Raw Device Mapping – Allows a VM to have direct access to a Physical LUN
• Why use an RDM– Performance– SAN Management Agents – SCSI target-based software can
used– Most common use case for RDM is running Windows Server
Failover Clustering with SQL Server
CONFIDENTIAL 12
A Little Background on RAW Device Mapping• Types of RDMs
– Virtual• Some VMFS capabilities, like Snapshots• Cross Box and Same Host Clustering• More options for back end storage providers
– Physical• Cross Hosts Clustering• Larger LUNs• Great Flexibility for SAN tool management
LUN
VMFS Datastore
Mapping File

You Can Now vMotion Those SQL Nodes That Were Stuck on a Host• With the ability to vMotion in cluster or even across cluster running Business Critical
applications that participate in a cluster with Shared RDMs we are greatly reducing maintenance downtime and complexity
