2. Agenda Introduction / Flavors Key Scenarios Dynamic Systems Initiative Support Hardware Emulation Differences VPC / VS Licensing & Pricing

3. What is Virtual PC / Server Allows you to Virtualize systems Run multiple virtualized systems on a single hardware box Each virtual system functions as an independent, self-contained computer

4. Main Uses Hardware Consolidation Development & Testing  N-Tier Applications on a single box! Legacy app re-hosting Software Demos Training Support smaller departments

5. Dynamic Systems Initiative Long-term plan for automation Automate how businesses design, deploy, and operate increasingly complex & distributed systems

6. Monitoring Server Router/ Firewall 100 Mbps Switch Web Server 4 Web Server 3 Web Server 2 Web Server 1 Order Processing Server (with message queue, payment component, and SMTP) Admin Server (with Domain Controller & DNS) Database Server 1 Disk Array Database Server 2 Active Directory Domain Controller (with DNS) Application Complexity Distributed Systems

7. Challenges Span the IT Lifecycle How do I set and enforce operational policies? Development IT Operations How do I deploy a distributed system? How do I describe my operational requirements? How do I operate this distributed system?

8. Simplified development of applications that are easier to deploy and maintain over time Automated, policy-driven IT systems that are highly reliable, cost effective, and responsive to changing business needs Easily meet or exceed SLAs and continuously monitor customer experience to ensure satisfied business units and productive end users DSI will result in reduced costs, improved reliability, and increased responsiveness across the entire IT life cycle DSI Benefits IT Broadly Improved manageability in heterogeneous environments through partner solutions that leverage DSI technologies

9. “Designed For Operations” “Designed For Operations” “Operationally Aware Platform” “Intelligent Management” Model-based development and authoring tools Operationally aware applications Model-based management tools End-to-end automation of system deployment, monitoring, and updating Model-based automation infrastructure Increased utilization and flexibility of resources

10. DSI Core Technical Principles SW platforms and tools that enable…. Knowledge of an IT System: Architectural intent Operational environment IT policies Resource needs Across platforms That can be created, Modified and operated on… Across the IT lifecycle Develop, Operate, Analyze/Act Develop, Operate, Analyze/Act To be captured in… Software Models MOM Management Packs System Definition Model DeveloperInsight Application Knowledge Operational Practices

11. DSI Components for our Discussion Virtual Server 2005 Automated Deployment Services Virtual Server Migration Toolkit Goal: Take a physical NT4 (or other legacy system) and turn it into a Virtualized Machine. Long-Term Goal – dynamically create any server/service on an as needed basis  MOM 200x / System Center

12. Support Virtual Server  Windows Server 2003 (std, ent, datacenter)  Windows XP (non-production) Virtual PC for Windows  Windows XP  Windows Server (non-production) Virtual PC for Macintosh  OSX 10.2.8

13. Support 32-bit hardware only 64-bit in the future Only virtualization technology fully supported by Microsoft Support

14. Support Guest Operating Systems:  Mainly Windows software  OS/2 Other x86 Operating Systems will work, but not supported by Microsoft Support x86 Operating Systems only  No Macintosh OS as a guest

15. Hardware Emulation Up to 4 IDE/ATA devices (hard drives, CD- ROM, etc.) SCSI – emulates the Adaptec 7870  Up to 4 adapters  Up to 7 devices to adapter  Up to 2 TB per device  4 x 7 x 2 = 56TB per VM SAN Support (as configured by the host) Can do Microsoft Clustering (fail-over)

16. Hardware Emulation Hard Drive Types  Dynamically expanding  Fixed size (grows as need up to fixed size)  Differencing disks (shared parent with multiple child disks)  Undo Disk support Video – S3 Trio 64, 4 MB of VRAM, 2D accelerator, DirectX Floppy Drive Support (map to a physical device or floppy disk image) CD-ROM Support (map to physical device or ISO image)

17. Hardware Emulation COM ports – up to 2 ports, mapped to hardware ports LPT Port – 1 LPT port, mapped to hardware port Mouse – PS/2 IntelliMouse Network Support – up to 4 NICs  Local only  Guest-to-host  Guest-to-guest  Full network access  Create Virtual Networks

18. Hardware Emulation Memory  Up to 3.6 GB per VM, 64 GB total  RAM from all running VMs cannot exceed physical RAM  Example – 2 GB of RAM can run 6 VMs of 256 MB with 512 left for the Host OS USB support – only keyboard & mouse input devices Processors  Can run only multi-processor boxes  Guest OS only sees 1 processor

19. Management Config file is XML Fully scriptable  Creation, startup, shutdown, etc COM API SDK MOM 2005 Management Pack

20. Differences Virtual PC / Server Can move virtual images between Virtual PC and Virtual Server  Except for machines in a “saved state” – these must be shut down before moving Sound – Virtual PC has it, Server does not SCSI – Virtual Server has it, PC does not

21. Licensing – Virtual PC One copy of Virtual PC, regardless of # of processors (running on WinXP) Will need Operating System license for each VM Example – Host is WinXP, with Win98, WinME, Win2000 as Guests  WinXP License  Virtual PC License  Win98 License  WinME License  Win2000 License If each machine was running Office, you would need 4 license of Office Campus Agreement Covers you for the Operating Systems & Office!

22. Licensing – Virtual Server One Copy of Virtual Server per server  Standard Edition: 1-4 Processors  Enterprise Edition: 1-32 Processors Editions are identical in features Must license each OS in each VM Must license for each application in each VM Must license CALs for applications

23. Licensing – Virtual Server Example Host – Win2003 with no apps. 4 Procs VM1 – Win2000 with Exchange2000 VM2 – NT4 with SQL 7 VM3 – Win2003 with SQL2000 & SharePoint 1000 clients using all apps

24. Licensing – Virtual Server Win2003 – 2 copies NT4 – 1 copy Win2000 – 1 copy SQL 7 – 1 copy SQL 2000 – 1 processor license SharePoint Portal – 1 copy 1000 CALs for Windows, Exchange 2000, and SharePoint Portal Server Campus Agreement already covers you on the CALs. Servers would need to be purchased. This is no different if you had 4 physical computers.

25. Pricing Virtual Server Standard  License - $161  L + 3 Years of SA - $281 Virtual Server Enterprise  License - $326  L + 3 Years of SA - $570

26. Pricing Virtual PC (Mac or Windows)  License - $38  L + 3 years of SA - $70 Virtual PC for Mac is included with Office 2004 Professional for Mac
