Editor's Notes
- So, letās go! Hello to all of you! I know Magi Naumova is a room from here and you not choosing her session, but this one, makes me feel great and thankful! So, in this room, how many DEV guys? Hands up! How many DBAs?What is here for you? We are going to talk how to be a rockstar and OK, what we are going to do is do something a bit strange ā we will reverse the order of the presentation and start from her end. Said in other words, I beg you know, Dev and DBAs to give a round of applause for our sponsors, who made this all possible at all!
- OK, enough! ļ
- Careful about how I go for the customers!
- So before we start, is there anyone still here who is against virtualization? I promise there will be No marketing messages todayā¦Ok, this was just for fun! Nowā¦
- Today I am going to tell you a storyā¦ No interruptions, seamlessly, SMOOTHLY Does not care about Money. Money is nothing for them. They are letās say bank institution, but they are looking to optimize.You know that when you have a lot of money, you always try to make even more but spend less.They are that kind of a company for which hardware or software resources are just a tool to operate their business smooth. If these tools prevents business for running smooth, they are fixing it. Period
- Jesus Christ!
- in which we offered the business a private cloud solution
- Define what appliance is and talk about the 3 possible choices!Emphasize that this appliance is not for tier 1 and also workloads at the end. HP ProLiant BL465c G7 blade servers with 16 Opteron 6100 Series processorsAPPLIANCE and not reference (Why!)Full rack was ordered ā 8 servers (each with 256GB ram 2TB all 2x16 processors * 12 cores each = 196 logical cpus/ 60000 IOPS 99 Spindels (some of the storage is not used in order to be able to repeat the workload in case of failiure; Dynamic MemorySCALE OUT ā up to 10 racks / POD 57TB of memory RAID 10System center Configuration Manager 2007R2 + Operations Manager 2007R2 Virtual Machine Manager 2008R2 System center Service ManagerWindows Server 2008R2 + hyper-v(clustered)Compliant with SQL Server 2012System center + AD are virtual! 160 servers almost an year58TB space 22TB usable In Ivan Donevās session Fast Track reference architecture for DW loarkloads
- DBAs how will you approach this?user connections database usagecpumemorySQL Server editionsdatabases count and what hardware and software they useI really want someone to this for me!
- LET ME CONNECT TO MY LAB!!!TELL THEM WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO!!!This tool is crazy! How many of you know it? How many of you have used it?Consolidation Planning Tool For SQL server 1.0 does not work with MAP 7.0 donāt tell anyone!
- Why appliance? 3 types of building a server todayand we are still analyzing dataā¦
- They said no to MAP toolkit results + future trends + business decision makersBecause of performance issues
- They said no to MAP toolkit results
- They said no to MAP toolkit resultsHow should we consolidate?P2V, consolidationclose to 1000 DBs
- Now, P2V is fine! Disk2VHDThey said no to MAP toolkit resultsHow should we consolidate? Single server ā single instance ā many dbs (and not single server instance / multiple instances) + Multiple Oss, Multiple SQL Servers as VMsP2V, consolidation
- Templates were changed200 different workloads (mixed)
- sysprep ā the vhdsql server profile ā how the instance will be named / accounts vm template ā based on the vhd ā hardware configuration and sql server configuration
- TELL THEM WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO!!!SysPrepSQL Serverdisk2vhdsysprep.exe in C:\\Windows\\system32\\sysprep.execopy the VHD to your library folder in SCVMMDuring the demo, be careful with the mouse!!!!
- VMM we have predifined templates but we need them even better! SPs + slipstream resources also200 workloads!
- VMM we have predifined templates but we need them even better! SPs + slipstream resources also200 workloads!
- VMM we have predefined templates but we need them even better! SPs + slipstream resources also200 workloads!
- so you are a rockstar! around 200k first yearso you can save you timedonāt tell anyone, but project is still ongoing and there is capacity for even more vms after it completes!!! of course, it all looks amazing and shiny and of course It will be, but I am not supposed to tell you the bad things or at least I will do it on lunch
