Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3
Storage DRS and Profile-Driven Storage
Tier storage based on performance characteristics (i.e. datastore cluster)
Simplify initial storage placement Load balance based on I/O Resource alignment with SLAs
Overview
Benefits
Eliminate VM downtime for storage maintenance
Reduce time for storage planning/configuration
Reduce errors in the selection and management of VM storage
Increase storage utilization by optimizing placement
High IO Throughput
12
Set up SLAs for use of storage and network resources
Added per virtual machine settings for Network I/O Control
Added NFS support for Storage I/O Control
Eliminate the “noisy neighbor” problem
More granular SLA settings for network traffic
Extend Storage SLAs to more VMs
Performance Guarantees – Network and Storage I/O Control
Overview
Benefits
1. VM requests more resources
2. Other VMs are starved
for resources
3. w/ I/O controls, can give VIP VMs
preferential access

ESXi Migration
21
VMware ESXi: 3rd Generation Hypervisor Architecture
VMware GSX(VMware Server)
• Installs as an application
• Runs on a host OS
• Depends on OS for resource management
VMware ESXArchitecture
• Installs “bare metal”
• Relies on a Linux OS (Service Console) for running partner agents and scripting
VMware ESXi Architecture
• Installs “bare metal”
• Management tasks are moved outside of the hypervisor
VMware ESX
Service ConsoleVMware ESXi
2001 2003 2007
The ESXi architecture runs independently of a general purpose OS, simplifying hypervisor management and improving security.

Converging to ESXi with the Next vSphere Release
With the GA of vSphere 4.1 in July 2010 VMware officially announced that starting with the next vSphere our hypervisor architecture will converge to ESXi
From the release note:
VMware vSphere 4.1 and its subsequent update and patch releases are the last
releases to include both ESX and ESXi hypervisor architectures. Future major
releases of VMware vSphere will include only the VMware ESXi architecture.
• VMware recommends that customers start transitioning to the ESXi architecture when deploying VMware vSphere 4.1.
• VMware will continue to provide technical support for VMware ESX according to the VMware vSphere support policy on the VMware Enterprise Infrastructure Support page.
• To learn more about the ESXi architecture and how to migrate from ESX to ESXi, go to the VMware ESXi and ESX InfoCenter.
23
How Does A User Plan an ESX to ESXi migration?
1. Visit the ESX and ESXi Info Center
2. Start testing ESXi
• If you’ve not already deployed, there’s no better time than the present
3. Ensure 3rd party solutions used by your customers are ESXi Ready
• Monitoring, backup, management, etc. Most already are.
• Bid farewell to agents!
4. Familiarize with ESXi remote management options
• Transition any scripts or automation that depended on the COS
• Powerful off-host scripting and automation using vCLI, PowerCLI, …
5. Plan an ESXi migration as part of vSphere upgrade
• Testing of ESXi architecture can be incorporated into overall vSphere testing
