Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of Computer Storage technical field of virtualization, specifically a kind of method using the carry storage on ESXi main frame of iSER agreement.
Background technology
Virtual, to refer to a computer virtual by Intel Virtualization Technology to be multiple stage logical machine.Run multiple logical machine on one computer, each logical machine can run different operating system simultaneously, and application program can be run and be independent of each other in separate space, thus significantly improves the work efficiency of computing machine.
Current, along with virtualized upsurge, increasing virtualization solution is widely used.Meanwhile, the enterprise along with various scale adapts to increasing terminal device, the mobile working mode of employee and the terminal management of simplification gradually, and desktop virtual becomes the top priority of IT just fast.Desktop virtual depends on server virtualization, the server of the heart in the data carries out server virtualization, generates a large amount of independently desktop operating systems (virtual machine or virtual desktop), sends to terminal device according to proprietary virtual desktop agreement simultaneously.User terminal logs on fictitious host computer by Ethernet, only needs to remember username and password and gateway information, anywhere or anytime by the desktop system of network access oneself, thus can realize unit multi-user.
The virtualization solution of VMware is one of scheme the most generally adopted.VMware is the leading manufacturer of global desktop to data center virtualization solution.The client of whole world different scales relies on VMware to reduce costs with running cost, guarantees operational sustainability, reinforcing security move towards green.VMware general headquarters are located at the Paro Ao Duo city (Palo Alto) of California.
VSphere testing software is that VMware company releases a set of server virtualization solution.Core component in VSphere testing software is VMware ESXi software (replacing former ESX), the XenServer of ESXi and Citrix is similar, be a can the software of independent installation and operation on Naked machine, therefore no longer depend on host operating system unlike it with VMware Workstation software.
In the solution of traditional VMware desktop virtual, rear end needs to mate storage pool, the mode connecting storage pool comprises NFS(Network File System, i.e. network file system(NFS)), ISCSI(Internet Small Computer System Interface, i.e. small computer system interface) etc.ISER(iSCSI Extension for RDMA) agreement, be a kind of agreement of IB SAN, its Main Function is that the order of iSCSI agreement and data are gone on this network of such as Infiniband by the mode of RDMA.Though iSER agreement has high bandwidth, the outstanding feature of low delay, how iSER protocol application is virtual to VMware it does not almost apply in virtualized scheme, in, be the problem needing at present to solve.
summary of the invention
Technical assignment of the present invention is to provide a kind of method using the carry storage on ESXi main frame of iSER agreement; During iSER protocol application is virtual to VMware, use iSER agreement to connect ESXi main frame and hold with storage, improve bandwidth.
Technical assignment of the present invention realizes in the following manner,
A kind of method using the carry storage on ESXi main frame of iSER agreement, the hardware related to comprises ESXi main frame and holds with storage, ESXi main frame is the server having installed VMware ESXi software, storing the server held as having storage pool, using and supporting that the network of iSER agreement connects ESXi main frame and holds with storage; Specifically comprise the steps:
(1), on ESXi main frame, open up iSER client (iSER Client), dispose VMware ESXi software, support the trawl performance (iSER Driver) of iSER agreement in this software deploy;
(2), in storage end administration iSER target (iSER Target), and the trawl performance (iSER Driver) supporting iSER agreement is installed, iSER target is externally mapped away;
(3), to iSER target be configured, configuration needs the storage volume that maps out by iSER agreement, and the network address mapped and port, so that iSER client can find corresponding iSER target by above-mentioned information;
(4), on VMware ESXi software start iSER client, search corresponding iSER target, after correctly finding, by supporting that iSER client is connected with iSER target by the network of iSER agreement, namely achieving ESXi main frame and storing the connection of holding.
In step (1), support that the trawl performance of iSER agreement is ten thousand Broadcoms of Mellanox.
In step (2), iSER target is open source software tgt, supports that the trawl performance of iSER agreement is ten thousand Broadcoms of Mellanox.
The network of support iSER agreement is infiniband architecture network.
A kind of iSER of use agreement of the present invention method beneficial effect that carry stores on ESXi main frame is:
1, support that the network (such as infiniband) of iSER agreement is as storing the interconnection network of end with ESXi main frame, by creating iSER Target in storage end, and it is externally mapped away, the iSER Target that ESXi main frame is being shot out by the mapping of iSER agreement is made to carry out carry operation, make it the shared storage become in virtualized environment, can be used for file available in storage virtual machine file and other virtualized environments;
2, SER protocol application virtual to VMware in, use iSER agreement to connect ESXi main frame with storing and hold, improve bandwidth.
