 Apa Itu Virtualisasi?

Traditional Architecture Virtual Architecture

Apa Itu Virtual Machine?

Virtual Machine Virtual Machine Components

Operation System
Vmware Tools
Virtual Resources
- CPU and Memory
- Network Adapters
- Disk and Controller
- Parallel and serial ports
 Physical vs Virtual Machines
Physical Machines
Difficult to move or copy
Bound to a specific set of
hardware components
Often has a short lifecycle
Requires personal contact to
upgrade hardware
Virtual Machines
Easy to move or copy
- Encapsulated into files
- Independent of physical hardware
Easy to manage
- Isolated from other VM running on
same Physical Hardware
- Insulated from physical hardware

Removing a Virtual Machine

Remove from Inventory

Delete from Disk

OS Installation failed on VM

The installation of a 64-bit OS cannot start

The installation of a 64-bit guest OS stop responding

at the Setup is starting the Windows screen

The installation of a 64-bit OS cannot complete

Apa itu Template?
 Creating a Template

Clone VM to Template

Convert VM to Template

Clone to Template
Deploy a VM from a Template
 Updating a Template

1. Convert Template to VM

2. Place VM on isolated
network

3. Make appropriate
changes to VM

4. Convert VM to Template
again
 Apa itu Cloning?

VM can be powered on
or powered off

Must be connected to
vCenter Server

Customizing Guest OS
such as Computer,
Network, License Setting
Apa itu Content Library?
Adding Template to
Content Library
Deploy VM from Content Library

Template can be used to

deploy VM and vApps

Each VM template and

vApp Template is library
item

You can mount an ISO

file directly from
Content Library
Benefits of Content Library

Sharing and Consistency

Storage Efficiency

Secure Subscription
Types of Content Library
 Modifying VM Setting

Some Hardware can be added

or removed while the VM is
powered on or off
 Modifying VM Setting

No Snapshot attached

Might require system

tools to make new
space usable
 Inflating Thin Disk

Virtual Machine must be

powered off

Can use storage vMotion

and select thick
provisioned disk as the
destination

Apa itu Migrasi VM?

Cold

Suspended

vSphere vMotion

vSphere Storage vMotion

Shared-nothing vSphere vMotion

Apa itu Migrasi VM?
vSphere vMotion Migration
Requirements

Virtual Machine must not have CPU Affinity configured

Virtual Machine must not have a connection to a virtual

device such as a CD/DVD Drive or Floppy Drive, with a local
image mounted

Virtual Machine files must be accessible on destination host

vSphere vMotion Migration
Host Requirements

Accesibility to all storage

At least a 1 Gigabit Ethernet network

Compatible CPUs
Apa itu EVC?
Apa itu EVC?

EVC Cluster Requirements

Use CPUs from a single Vendor. Either Intel or AMD

Hardware Virtualization enabled : Intel VT or AMD-V

Execution disable technology enabled : AMD no

eXecute (NX) or Intel eXecute Disable (XD)
Checking vMotion Errors
Apa itu Snapshot?
Apa itu Snapshot?
Apa itu Resource Pool?
 Why Resource Pool?

Flexible hierarchical organization

Isolation beetwen pools and sharing in pools

Separation of resources from hardware

Ability to prioritize virtual machine workloads

Apa itu Alarm?
Apa itu vSphere DRS?
DRS Migration Threshold

Level 1 (Conservative)
Level 2
Level 3 (Default)
Level 4
Level 5 (Aggressive)
 Virtual Machine Affinity Rules

Affinity Rules :
Use for multivirtual
machine systems where
virtual machines
communicate heavily
with one another

Anti-Affinity Rules :
Use for multivirtual
machine systems where
load balance or high
availibity is desired
 DRS Group

Type of VM or host groups:

A virtual machine can belong to multiple

VM groups

A host can belong to multiple host groups

VM-Host Affinity Rules
 Don't compare Yourself
with anyone in this world.
if You do so,

THANK YOU!
You are insulting Yourself.
