Slide 16


Create a new Cloud Map template for a

Physical Server deployment

When Insight Orchestration Designer opens there will be a blank template, if you dontsee a blank template just click on the new button. To add components just drag anddrop each component onto the template

The HP logical server capability enables physical and virtual servers to be easilyprovisioned and freely moved. All logical servers can be managed in the same way,whether they are deployed as physical servers or virtual machines. A logical serverprofile contains everything that the OS and application stack require to operate -- a

system image including the OS, application and boot data; configuration requirementslike processors and memory; and unique identifiers such as MAC addresses and WWnames.

We will create a physical server deployment template first. Drag one Networkcomponent, one Physical Server Group component, and one Physical Storagecomponent on to the blank template.

Storage ProvisioningManager and SPEs

Create Storage Pool Entries

HP Storage Provisioning Manager (SPM) is a software tool that manages storage provisioningwithin the HP Matrix Operating Environment. It provides a secure service-centricmanagement interface to storage, enabling storage requests to be fulfilled with available storageservices from the SPM catalog, and securely automating storage management tasks byinterfacingdirectly with storage arrays. SPM is always working, even when the user interface is notrunning. There are two main use models:

In the pre-populated model, a storage architect or administrator first populates the SPMcatalog with storage services to be exposed to server management software, then sets upaccess rightsfor those services. HP Matrix Operating Environment then enables a server administrator torequest storage, which is sent to SPM as a storage services request (a set of goals). SPM thenreturns a list of


63/140

candidate storage services to HP Matrix Operating Environment. The server administratorselects one or more appropriate volume services to fulfill the set of goals.

In the request-based model, a server administrator uses HP Matrix Operating Environment torequest storage before it is imported or created within SPM. The storage architect oradministrator then adds

arrays and volume services to fulfill the goals in that service request.

For more information on SPM please seehttp://h20000.www2.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/c02796773/c02796773.pdf

We are going to start with a walk through of the Storage Provisioning Manager (SPM)Administrator interface.

Slide 64


SPM Portal

After logging into SPM you will see a Catalog screen displaying an overview of StorageCapacity used and Available, Requests fulfilled.

A goal represents a request for a single volume service. Each goal contains a list ofconstraints (requirements) that describe the storage selected from the catalog, as wellas service delivery requirements.

In our case the Storage Admin has pre-populated the catalog and all Goals will begenerated from within the Matrix Operating Environment once you create a storage poolentry.

SIM welcome page. Select View Power Summary
