VMware vSphere™ 5.0 (“vSphere”) brings many new capabilities to extend the benefits of vSphere 4.1. These new features and enhancements to core capabilities in vSphere provide more performance optimization and easier provisioning, monitoring and troubleshooting. This paper focuses on the storage-specific features and enhancements that are available in vSphere 5.0 and provides an overview of how they optimize storage utilization, ease monitoring, and increase operational efficiency. Wherever possible, we will also provide use cases and requirements that might apply to these new functions.
The topics to be covered in this paper are:
• vSphere® VMFS-5
• vSphere® Storage Distributed Resource Scheduler (Storage DRS)
• vSphere® Storage APIs - Storage Awareness
• Profile-Driven Storage
• Fibre Channel over Ethernet
• vSphere® Storage I/O Control (Storage I/O Control)
• vSphere® Storage APIs – Array Integration
• vSphere® Storage vMotion® (Storage vMotion)
This will provide a technical overview of new capabilities and enhancements as well as links to additional information about each of these new storage features.
