One Click System Evacuation

Provides easy, graceful way to prepare for maintenance

§  Automatically relocate all virtual machines to other machines – Use the PowerVC scheduler to determine the target host or manually select the

destination host – Clears the system of virtual machines without excessive administrator work

§  Alternatively, fence off the physical host to prevent new virtual machines from being deployed or moved to that host

– Option to allow administrators greater control of relocation operation

Host 13 Host 14

Host Groups allow the PowerVC administrator to create a logical boundary around a group of physical servers •  Each server can only be in one host group •  Deployment, mobility and remote restart are only

allowed within the group •  Each group has its own placement policy •  Hosts are placed in the default group when added

“PCI” Host Group

“POWER8” Host Group

“Austin” Host Group

Host 5 Host 2 Host 7

Host 13 Host 14

The PowerVC scheduler takes the capacity of servers into account to determine which host to deploy or relocate VMs to. Hosts with the greatest free CPU or memory allocation becomes the target of the next VM.

The scheduler can also take host CPU utilization into account when scheduling VMs

PowerVC VM Collocation Affinity and Anti-affinity

21

Host 1 Host 2 Host 3

Affinity and Anti-affinity provide control over which VMs can be placed on the same host -  VMs with Affinity must be deployed

to the same host -  VMs with Anti-Affinity must not be

placed on the same physical host

VM with no affinity requirements – can go anywhere within the host group

VMs with affinity – must be placed on the same host

VMs with anti-affinity – cannot be placed on the same host

Introduced in PowerVC v1.2.3

Policy Description Initial Placement

Packing   Pack workload on fewest physical servers   Maximizes usable capacity, reduces

fragmentation, reduce energy consumption ü

Striping   Spread workload across as many physical

servers as possible   Reduce impact of host failures, higher

application performance ü

CPU Balance

  Place VMs on the hosts with the least allocated CPU

  Higher application performance ü

Memory Balance

  Place VMs on the hosts with the most available memory

  Improve application performance ü

Affinity   Affinity specifies that VMs should be placed

on the same host or few hosts   Useful for collocating VMs on the same

host(s) ü

Anti-Affinity

  Do not place VMs on same host   Useful for ensuring VMs are not collocated   Availability cluster support (e.g. PowerHA)   Higher application performance
