FOR SERVERS: DATASHEET

RED HAT ENTERPRISE VIRTUALIZATION FOR SERVERS

Red Hat®Enterprise Virtualization for Servers is an

end-to-end virtualization solution that is designed to

enable pervasive datacenter virtualization, and unlock

unprecedented capital and operational efciency. Red Hat

Enterprise Virtualization for Servers builds upon the

Red Hat Enterprise Linux® platform that is trusted by thou-

sands of organizations on millions of systems around the

world for their most mission-critical workloads. It consists

of the following two components:

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Manager for Servers• :

A feature-rich server virtualization management

system that provides advanced capabilities for hosts

and guests, including high availability, live migration,

storage management, system scheduler, and more.

Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization Hypervisor:•

A modern hypervisor based on Kernel-based Virtual

Machine (KVM) virtual technology which can be dep-

loyed either as a standalone bare metal hypervisor

(included with Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization for

Servers), or as Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 and later

(purchased separately) installed as a hypervisor host.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

Robust virtualization management features

Live migration:• Dynamically move virtual machines

between hosts with no service interruption.

High availability:• Virtual machines automatically

restart on another host in the case of host failure.

System scheduler:• Balance workloads in the datacenter

by dynamically live-migrating virtual machines based

on resource usage and policy.

Power saver:• During off-peak hours, concentrate vir-

tual machines on fewer physical hosts to allow some

hosts to be powered down to achieve power savings.

Maintenance manager:• Perform maintenance on hosts

without guest downtime.

Image manager:• Create new virtual machines based

on templates.

Thin provisioning:• Allows creation of desktops and

servers based on templates by only storing differences

between new instances and the base template, saving

storage space.

Industry-leading performance with KVM technology1

Over 400 active workload VMs on a 32 core, 1 TB server •

Messaging performance of one million messages per•

second on a single server and low latency

Up to 140 percent of bare metal performance with mul-•

tiple VMs on a single server compared to a single bare

metal operating system

Up to 95 percent of bare metal performance for real •

world enterprise applications
