Release Notes for Cisco VFrame Data Center 1.1

OL-10402-01

Key Features

VFrame Data Center is an appliance-based service orchestration solution for the

data center. With VFrame, customers can define end-to-end virtualized

application services. VFrame can discover physical resources within the data

center. Based on requirements defined for the application infrastructure resources,

VFrame can allocate appropriate physical or virtual resources and power the

application service network.

Key features of VFrame Data Center 1.1 include the following:

•Service Templates

•Service Networks

•Discovery

•Resource Pooling

•Policies

•Macros

•Lights Out Management Macros

•Storage Macros

•Role Based Access Control

•Server Remote Boot Management

•Server Image Management

•VFrame Data Center Appliance

•VFrame API and SDK

Service Templates

This is a logical definition of the application infrastructure. It defines the building

blocks (such as server groups, load balancers, and so on) and the connectivity that

is required among them. A template can be used to create multiple service

networks.

A template is like a “class” definition in object oriented programming. It defines

the basic structure and behavior of the service.

Key Features

Release Notes for Cisco VFrame Data Center 1.1

OL-10402-01

Service Networks

These are instantiations of a service template. These represent the running

application service network. Physical resources get mapped to a service network.

A service network is an equivalent of an “object” in object oriented programming.

It gets derived out of general “class” (template) but has specific properties

associated with the applications that it is running.

Discovery

VFrame discovers x86 based servers, Network attached and Fiber Channel

attached storage, Ethernet and Fiber Channel switches and network services

modules such as firewalls and load balancers.

Resource Pooling

The discovered physical resources can be grouped into various groups based on

capabilities, performance, types, availability, and other user defined filters based

on the discovered attributes.

Policies

VFrame has built-in policies that allow changes to the application infrastructure.

VFrame monitors server capacity and load through a host-based agent. The

built-in policies allow server adds and deletes for CPU or memory-based

thresholds, or time-based events.

External policies can be input through the VFrame web services interface.

This allows data center administrators to manage asynchronous workloads much

more efficiently by not having dedicated servers that will idle during non-peak

hours associated with each application.

OL-10402-01

Key Features

Macros

An open scripting interface that uses XML and Perl. This feature allows the

execution of custom user commands at predetermined events.

Lights Out Management Macros

Adapter scripts that provide power management functions for servers. These are

modular and provide a very flexible way to add server support.

Storage Macros

Modular adapters that provide a simple mechanism for Storage Array integration.

Role Based Access Control

VFrame allows multiple users to be given unique access privileges through role

definitions. The management of resources can also be segmented through the use

of virtual contexts. Virtual contexts provide separation between different

departments or customers accessing a common pool of resources.

Server Remote Boot Management

VFrame can provide PXE-based NFS boot for Linux servers and PXE/SAN-based

Fire Channel boot services for both Linux and Windows servers.

Server Image Management

Creates seamless server image snapshots to produce network-stored golden boot

images.

System Requirements

Release Notes for Cisco VFrame Data Center 1.1

OL-10402-01

VFrame Data Center Appliance

Being a self contained secure appliance makes introducing VFrame into a data

center simple. There is no need to install software and integrate.

VFrame API and SDK

VFrame provides a SOAP-based web services API that allows third-party

applications to programmatically manage and monitor services offered by

VFrame. For more details, see to the VFrame Data Center Programmer's Guide.

System Requirements

The VFrame Data Center client must meet or exceed the following minimum

system requirements:

•Intel Pentium III, 1.1 GHz

•512 MB to 1 GB RAM

•100 MB hard drive space

•Any of the following operating systems:

–

Microsoft Windows XP, Service Pack 1

–

Microsoft Windows 2000, Service Pack 3

–

Microsoft Windows Server 2003

•Any of the following web browsers:

–

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0

–

Mozilla Firefox 1.0

•Java Runtime Environment JRE1.5.0_11 or JRE1.5.0_08

•High-resolution monitor, 1024 by 768 pixels, 256 colors
