- 20. *Virtualization Deployment Guide Canyou virtualize SharePoint 2010 Production Servers? Absolutely. It is supported but with caveats. Must architect the environment properly Not taking into account disk, processor, memory, and other host and guest environments can make a virtualized environment run slowly.
- 21. *Virtual Host Guideline • Dedicated hosts for SharePoint Virtual Guests • Assume 1GB of memory taken by host OS (Hyper-V), General 3rd party varies • No Software on Host OS! (Except A/V or Backup) • Allocate Direct / Passthrough NICs when possible NICs • Create dedicated NIC for Management • Create dedicated NIC for Failover • Dedicated spindles for SharePoint • Dedicated volume for Host OS Disk • Dedicated volume for Guest OS VHDs • Dedicated volume for Databases and Logs • Do not over allocate (applies to memory as well) Processor • No more than 2 vCPUs for every Core on host • For optimal performance use 1:1 ratio
- 22. *Virtualization Role • Excellent Virtualization Candidate Web • Can be easily provisioned via templates Query/ • Higher proc/mem requirements, but still good candidate • Often paired with SP2010 Web Role Crawl • Higher proc/mem requirements, but still good candidate App • Low disk requirements compared to other roles • Requires the most memory, proc, and disk IO DB • Be cautious when virtualizing, make sure host is scaled • If virtual, be sure to use pass-through or fixed size disks
- 23. * Performance CountersThreshold on Hosts Processor Network Bandwidth – <60% Utilization = Good Bytes Total/sec 60%-90% = Caution <40% Utilization = Good >90% = Trouble 41%-64% = Caution Available Memory >65% = Trouble 50% and above = Good Network Latency - 10%-50% = OK Output Queue Length <10% = Trouble 0 = Good 1-2= OK Disk – Avg.

- 25. *Virtualization Deployment Guide SQL Server connection aliases enable efficient transition and migration between physical and virtual servers Configure Index server to crawl itself to reduce network traffic and minimize propagation Perform regular disk maintenance on host and guest machines Keep databases maintained and optimized Restoring snapshot is not supported Beware of over subscribing host servers Host is a single point of failure Use host clustering to enhance VM availability
- 26. *Avoid Common Pitfalls Using the Farm Configuration Wizard for production Problems configuring some Service Applications with PowerShell Search Service Application User Profile Service Application Order of execution and dependencies Not all site templates support MUI
- 27. *SharePoint Service Accounts Neveruse a single service account Create the following accounts SQL Admin Account Installation Account SharePoint Farm Administrator Search Administrator Default Content Access Account Application Pool Identity Account
- 28. *Deployment Guide Carefullydesign and document your SharePoint implementation Start only the Service Applications you need Understand SharePoint’s Boundaries – absolute values Limits – configurable values Establish a performance baseline Maintain periodic performance measurements Evaluate using Remote Blob Storage in heavy ECM environments Limit content databases to 200 GB for collaboration sites
