Agenda

Logical Partition 주요 기능 ( Power 5 / 6 )

Virtualization on Power systems ( IBM i )


IBM Power Systems

LPAR (Logical Partition) 란

Ability to make a server run as if it were two or more independent servers

Resource on the server into subsets called logical partitions

Assign processors, memory and I/O devices to logical partitions

Supported OS : AIX, IBM i , Linux , Virtual I/O server

Share a few system attributes : serial number, system model, processor feature code

Partitioning tool : HMC (Hardware Management Console) or IVM (Integrated Virtualization Manager)


IBM Power Systems

Benefits of LPAR

Consolidating servers

Sharing resources

Maintaining independent servers

Creating a mixed production and test environment

Merging production and test environments

Consideration set the server to deconfigure failing processors or memory

modules automatically in ASMI administering a consolidated system might be more difficult in

some ways than administering multiple smaller systems.

Components of Power 5 Hardware

CEC – Contains processors, memory, service processorPower System/RIO Link – links to connect enclosuresExpansion Towers – DASD, BusesHypervisor – Firmware to virtualize all hardware for each partitionOperating Systems – i5/OS, AIX, LinuxHMC – Hardware Management Console


IBM Power Systems

What is a Hypervisor?

LOW level hardware virtualization software

Runs on CEC (main system) CPU and resides in CEC Memory

Loaded into the CEC by the FSP on base system IPL

Provides various RAS functions to partitions

Virtualizes all system hardware into multiple, independent, logical partitions (memory, CPUs, buses, etc)

Provides Virtual and/or Dedicated processor resources

The Virtual Service Processor (VSP) is part of the Hypervisor

Virtual TTY, Virtual Serial, Virtual Ethernet


IBM Power Systems

What is a Service Processor?Service processors have been around for a long time. In older, non-partitionable hardware, the service processor was a separate, embedded computer that supported the main OS.

On partitioned hardware, all partitions have a Virtual Service Processor (VSP), provided by the Hypervisor. VSP functions include:

Manage OS debugging (Mainstore dumps, Virtual I/O)

Provides access to various system settings

Provide a virtual control panel for a partition

Provide various HMC interfaces for partition control

IBM Power Systems

i5/OS V5R3 Logical Partitioning

POWER5: IBM Virtualization Engine systems technologies include POWER Hypervisor™ Supports i5/OS, AIX 5L and Linux and up to 254* partitions

Improve server utilization rates across multiple workloads Automatic processor balancing

with uncapped partitions

Improve fault tolerance and lower partition management costs Primary partition replaced by

Hardware Management Console (HMC)


IBM Power Systems

IBM eServer i5 LPAR Changes

Logically partitioned servers do not require a Primary PartitionAll LPAR i5 servers must have HMCAll OS/400 partitions must be at i5/OS V5R3Uncapped partitions 지원Operating systems: i5/OS, AIX 5L 5.2/5.3, POWER5 Linux

distributionsSimple migration process or reconfigure with wizards


IBM Power Systems

LPAR Basic Definitions

Dynamic LPAR: Ability to move resources between partitions without shutting down a partition

Micro-Partitioning: Ability to assign partial processors to a partition, for example, 2.6 processors (smallest unit is .1 processor)

Dedicated Partition: Whole processors only, assigned to a partition

Shared Processor Pool: A group of physical processors that provide processing capacity that can be shared among multiple logical partitions

Capped: Logical partition will never exceed its assigned processing capacity

Uncapped: Partiton’s assigned current processing capacity can be exceeded, up to the partitions’s current virtual processor setting when the shared processor pool

has any unused processor power

Uncapped Processing Weight : Available unused capacity is distributed to contending logical partitions in proportion to the established value of the uncapped weight. 64=Low and 255=High (default = 128)

예 ) Partition2= 64 , Partition3=255 : unused processor capacity 가 있을 경우 Partition3 가 Partition2 보다 4 배 더 processor capacity 를 할당 받는다 .

i5/OS Console Choices

Starting in V5R3, the types of consoles that can be used to control i5/OS are:

1. Twinax terminal

2. Operations Console direct-connect

3. Operations Console LAN-connect

4. Hardware Management Console (HMC)


IBM Power Systems

Hardware Management Console (HMC)

Single console for POWER5 server

• Pre-installed Linux-based workstation

• Ethernet, desktop or rack mount

• Supports local consoles, including 5250 console

• Web-based System Manager enables local or remote management for HMC control and status

Required on POWER5/6 servers to create/change partitions (LPAR) or to use Capacity on Demand

• Replaces primary partition and improves system resiliency

• Not required to operate the partition

IBM Power Systems

1. Local Modem – This option enables you to send problem information and system data to

your service provider using the modem on your HMC. You may want to select this option if the following are true:• Your HMC does not have access to a high-speed Internet connection. • You do not have any I5/OS logical partitions with high-speed Internet

connections

2. Internet VPN– This option enables you to send problem information to your service

provider using a high-speed Internet connection on your HMC – This is the fastest connection option available on the HMC, but some

environments restrict this type of connectivity for security reasons. Before you select this option, be sure your company's security policy permits this type of connection

HMC Electronic Connections to IBM


IBM Power Systems

• Service information and problems flow from each logical partition to the service provider using a VPN connection, as follows: – Linux logical partition > HMC > OS/400 service partition > Service and support – AIX logical partition > HMC > OS/400 service partition > Service and support – OS/400 logical partition > HMC (for service information) > OS/400 service partition > Service and

support – OS/400 logical partition > OS/400 service partition (for problems) > Service and support – OS/400 service partition > Service and support

Service/Problem Flows


IBM Power Systems

LPAR Service and Support Configuration


IBM Power Systems

• Partition Profiles– Users can create multiple, named profiles for each partition

• Provides the ability to predefine multiple partition configurations• Useful, for example, for predefining “on demand” server images for

different workloads– Users activate a partition by selecting a profile– For POWER5 systems, profiles define:

• Partition type (AIX/Linux or OS/400)• Processor allocation type (dedicated or shared)• Resource requirements (processors, memory, physical I/O, virtual I/O)• Resource max/min boundaries• Boot mode• Workload Management partition groups• Partition policies (service authority, monitoring, etc.)

– Profile 이 생성될 때는 overcommitted resource 를 validate 하지 않음

– Profile 이 Active 될 때 , overcommitted resource 검증 – Profile 을 변경 후 IPL 을 해야 적용됨 .

• Restart 를 하면 안되고 Power off 후 Power on 해야 함

HMC Profile-based Partition Management


IBM Power Systems

Partition capacity entitlement example

Shared pool has 2.0 processing units available

LPARs activated in sequence

Partition 1 activated Min = 1.0, max = 2.0, desired = 1.5 Starts with 1.5 allocated processing units

Partition 2 activated Min = 1.0, max = 2.0, desired = 1.0 Does not start

Partition 3 activated Min = 0.1, max = 1.0, desired = 0.8 Starts with 0.5 allocated processing units
