Section 14 Improving Availability
This section describes how to improve the VMware high availability.
The VMware High Availability (HA) functionality is designed to recover ESX(i)
servers automatically from a hardware failure. Virtual machines that are running on
the failed server are automatically restarted on another ESX(i) server. There will be
some minutes from the detection that the virtual machines are offline to the restarted
virtual machines restoring services. The configuration of VMware HA allows the
specification of the ESX server that hosts the restarted virtual machines.
VMware HA requires that the virtual machines are stored on an external storage
server such as a SAN server, and that the ESX(i) Servers are added to a vCenter
Server. The storage network and the management network must be redundant.
With the introduction of USB support in ESX(i) 4.1 it is possible to have the ABB
USB dongle connected directly into the ESX(i) server and available in the guest.
However, when a virtual machine is moved from one ESX(i) server to another it is
necessary to move the dongle as well. Here, it would be beneficial to use a USB
over IP device such as AnywhereUSB to maintain continuity of functionality when
moving virtual machines.
Configuring VMware High Availability
Before configuring VMware HA, the network setup should be reviewed. Refer to
section ESX(i) Server Configuration.
When a virtual machine is moved from one ESX(i) server to another, the vSwitches
must have the same set of names. For example, if the plant network is named PN1
on ESX1, then it must also be named PN1 on ESX2 and ESX3.
VMware High Availability is not a substitute for 800xA redundancy.
