Note

Installation will fail when a Resource Orchestrator agent is installed on an unsupported OS.

[Hyper-V]
When using Hyper-V on managed servers, the only supported OS of the admin server is Windows.

[Xen]
When using RHEL5-Xen on managed servers, the only supported OS of the admin server is Linux.

Use of some functions used in the server virtualization software for Resource Orchestrator at the same time with this product is not supported. Please do not use these functions.

[Hyper-V]
VMware(R) ESX and Citrix(R) XenServer(TM) can be managed by SCVMM, but only VM hosts for Hyper-V can be managed when using SCVMM in Resource Orchestrator.

  • Movement of storage areas

  • Movement changing the virtual machine storage destination

  • Saving in the virtual machine library

Oracle VM Manager

Template

Note

  • If an L-Server is created with a specified Windows image, when deploying the image use Sysprep, provided by Microsoft, to re-configure the properties unique to the server. By executing Sysprep, the user information and OS setting information are reset.
    For details on Sysprep, refer to the information provided by Microsoft.

  • If stopping or restarting of the manager is performed during execution of Sysprep, the operation being executed will be performed after the manager is started.
    Until the process being executed is completed, do not operate the target resource.

  • When using MAK license authentication for activation of Windows Server 2008 image OS, Sysprep can be executed a maximum of three times. Since Sysprep is executed when creating L-Server with images specified or when collecting cloning images, collection of cloning images and creation of L-Servers with images specified cannot be performed more than four times. Therefore, it is recommended not to collect cloning images from L-Servers that have had cloning images deployed, but to collect them from a dedicated master server. When customization of a guest OS is performed using the template function in VMware or when the template is created using SCVMM, Sysprep is executed and the number is included in the count.

[Windows] [VMware]
Note the following points when collecting cloning images from an L-Server that was created using a cloning image.

  • As L-Servers which have not been used even once after creation do not have server specific information set, creation of L-Servers using cloning images collected from an L-Server may fail. When collecting cloning images, set the server specific information on L-Server, after starting the target L-Server.

[Oracle VM]
The information on the [OS] tab cannot be set when deploying the image.

*1: The installation folder name specified when this software is installed.
The default folder name when Windows is installed on C:\ is as follows:

C:\Fujitsu\ROR

*2: The name of the storage folder (directory) specified for image files when this software is installed.

[Windows]
The default folder name when Windows is installed on C:\ is as follows:

C:\Fujitsu\ROR\ScwPro\depot

[Linux]
The default is as follows:

/var/opt/FJSVscw-deploysv/depot

*3: The image storage area when using cloning images for cloning of physical servers.
For details on the amount of space for the image storage area, refer to "1.4.2.5 Dynamic Disk Space" in the "Setup Guide VE".
Cloning images of L-Servers are stored in image pools regardless of server types.
*4: The backup storage area for configuration definition information and the L-Server restoration log storage area can be specified in the definition file. Estimate according to the location of the specified disk. For details on disk capacity and the content of the backup storage area for configuration definition information and the L-Server restoration log storage area, refer to "Chapter 8 Backup and Restoration of Admin Servers" of the "Operation Guide CE".
*5: The approximate estimate value is 60 MB.
*6: The approximate estimate value is 60 MB * VM guest number.
*7: The approximate estimate value is 100MB.

The size of log data changes according to L-Server configurations.
When it is necessary to estimate the detailed data, refer to "2.2.1.2 How to estimate the amount of space required for the log data ("Troubleshoot" directory)" in the "Systemwalker Service Quality Coordinator Installation Guide".

*8: For information disk capacity for performance display, there are storage areas for dashboard information and usage condition information. The disk capacity necessary for resources is indicated below.

Table 1.54 Formula of Disk Space Necessary for Information Storage Area for Performance Display

Target Resource

Required Disk Space

Dashboard information

The size changes depending on the number of L-Server templates and tenants changed.
Prepare the disk capacity, referring to the following formula in the case where 10 L-Server templates are defined.
When the number of tenants is 100, 6.6 GB of capacity is required.

Disk Space = (67.0 + (55.5 * number of tenants)) * 1.2 (MB)

Usage condition information

The size will increase and decrease depending on the numbers of VM hosts and VM guests.
The capacity differs depending on the VM management software.
Prepare the disk capacity, referring to the following formula. For the information storage area with 50 hosts and 1,000 VM (20VM/host), approximately 19.4 GB of space is required.
Disk space =
( (N1 * host number) + (N2 * guest number) ) *1.2(MB)

[VMware] N1 = 2.0, N2 = 16.5

[Hyper-V] N1 = 92.0, N2 = 26.0

[Xen/KVM] N1 = 102.0, N2 = 7.0

*9: The necessary disk capacity for metering logs is indicated as follows:

Table 1.55 Formula of Disk Space Necessary for Metering Logs

Metering Logs per day * capacity for one year
3.5 MB * 365 = 1.3 GB

The conditions of the base for the formula for disk space above and the formula of the metering logs per day are indicated as below.

Usage status

  • The following operations are executed every day

    • Return and deployment of 10 L-Platforms

    • Starting of 1,000 L-Servers when starting operations

    • Stopping of 1,000 L-Servers when finishing operations

  • Obtain regular logs every day

  • Keep metering logs for one year

Online backup frequency

  • Execute monthly base backup (every 30 days)

  • Execute hourly difference backup.

Table 1.57 Formula for Metering Logs per Day
  • Target capacity for metering logs

    • Event Logs for an L-Platform : 2.3 KB/each time (A)

    • Event Logs for other than an L-Platform : 0.6 KB/each time (B)

    • Regular logs : 2.3 * number of L-Platforms (KB) (C)

  • Metering logs per day

    (A) * operation number for L-Platforms per day
    + (B) * operation number for other than L-Platforms per day
    + (C) * number of operating L-Platforms

    = 2.3 KB * 20 + 0.6 KB * 2000 + 2.3 KB * 1000
    = 3.5MB
