Emulex announced <\/a>in Barcelona this week that they’ve released a PRO management pack for VMM 2008 and Operations Manager (OpsMgr) 2007.\n<\/p>\n

The concept is pretty simple.\u00a0 Your VM will be configured to have it’s own World-Wide Name (WWN) on the SAN fabric.\u00a0 This means that your zoning must include the VM.\u00a0 That’s more management in the storage provisioning so I’m not sure it’s something I’d do.\u00a0 Maybe it can be done selectively for key VM’s? The management pack can detect when an Emulex HBA is being overlaoded andidentify which VM’s are responsible for the excessive traffic.\u00a0 You can then take whatever preventative action you need.\n<\/p>\n

EDIT:\n<\/p>\n

I went to the HP stand afterwards and asked them what they were doing with "PRO tips".\u00a0 They have a management pack coming out maybe in December 2008 or January 2009.\u00a0 In their canned demo (AVI) you could see a wide range of components including storage.\u00a0 The presenter wasn’t sure but he reckoned HP would have to cover by Emulex and QLogic controllers for end-to-end storage management in a Hyper-V\/VMM farm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
