This section provides an example of a Resource Orchestrator system configuration.
Figure 1.6 Example of System Configuration
Admin Server
The admin server is a server used to manage several managed servers.
The admin server operates in a Windows or Linux environment.
The Resource Orchestrator manager should be installed on the admin server. The admin server can be made redundant by using clustering software. The admin client can operate on the same machine as the admin server.
The Resource Orchestrator agent cannot be installed on the admin server to monitor and manage the admin server itself.
Note
[Hyper-V]
When using Hyper-V on managed servers, the only supported OS of the admin server is Windows.
Managed Server
A managed server is a server used for operational purposes. It is managed by the admin server.
Install agents on managed servers.
In server virtualization environments, the agent should only be installed on the VM host.
Admin Client
Admin clients are terminals used to connect to the admin server, which can be used to monitor and control the configuration and status of the entire system.
Admin clients should run in a Windows environment.
Storage Management Server
A server on which storage management software (such as ETERNUS SF Storage Cruiser) which manages multiple storage units has been installed. Please make it the same machine as the admin server.
Note that resources for both the admin and storage management software servers are required when operating the servers together.
VM Management Server
A server on which VM management software (such as VMware vCenter Server or System Center Virtual Machine Manager) to integrate multiple server virtualization softwares has been installed. The VM management server can operate on the same machine as the admin server.
Note that resources for both the admin and VM management servers are required when operating the servers together.
Admin LAN
The admin LAN is the LAN used by the admin server to control managed servers and storage.
The admin LAN is set up separately from the public LAN used by applications on managed servers.
Using network redundancy software on the server enables redundancy for the admin LAN or the public LAN. Manually configure network redundancy software.
When using an L-Server with the server type "Physical", the physical network adapter numbers available for the admin LAN are as below.
When not performing redundancy, "1" is available
When performing redundancy, "1" and "2" are available
